Operating Instructions
Loading the Dishwasher Baskets
Recommendations:
•
Consider buying utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.
•
Use a mild detergent that is described as 'kind to dishes'. If necessary, seek further information from
the detergent manufacturers.
•
For particular items, select a program with as low temperature as possible.
•
To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher immediately after the
program has ended.
Suitability for use in the dishwasher:

•
Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-
pearl handles.

Attention before or after loading the Dishwasher Baskets
(For the best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of
baskets and cutlery baskets may vary from your model.)
Scrape off any large food particles. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not necessary to rinse the
dishes under running water.
Place objects in the dishwasher in following way:
1. Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are faced downwards.
2. Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can run off.
3. All utensils are stacked securely and cannot tip over.
4. All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
NOTE
: Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could fall out of the basket.
•
Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so that
water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
•
Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other. To avoid damage
to glasses, they must not be touched.
•
Load large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower basket.
•
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee
and tea cups.
•
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard!
•
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the
upper basket.
•
Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and for reasonable
consumption of energy.
To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the
lower basket first and then the upper basket.
