4.4 Using the baskets 

 

The dishwasher has a capacity of 

10 place-settings

, including serving 

dishes. 

 

LOWER BASKET 

The lower basket receives the full force of the lower spray arm, and 
should therefore be used for the “toughest” items with a heavier degree 
of soiling.

 

 

All types and combinations of loads are 
permitted, provided that the dishes, pots and 
pans are arranged with all the soiled surfaces 
exposed to the water jets coming from the 
bottom.

 

 

 

With fixed supports

 

 

The bottom basket is fitted with supports 
which can be lowered to make better use of 
the space available.

 

 

 

With tilting supports

 

 

 

 

LOADING THE LOWER BASKET 

 

Carefully load flat plates, soup plates, dessert and serving dishes, 
positioning them vertically. Pots, pans and their covers must be loaded 
upside down. When loading soup plates and dessert bowls, be sure to 
leave a gap between them.
