4.3 Using the baskets
The dishwasher has a capacity of
12 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.
To make the most of the space inside the basket when loading large
items, it is equipped with tip-up supports for plates.
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.

CUTLERY BASKET
The cutlery should be arranged in an orderly manner inside the basket, with the handles pointing
downwards. Take care during loading to avoid injury from the knife blades.
The basket is suitable for all types of cutlery, except those long enough to
interfere with the upper spray arm.
Ladles, wooden spoons and cooking knives can be placed in the upper
basket,
making sure that the knife blades do not protrude from the
basket.
