The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position
are a potential hazard.
These items should only be placed in the
removable knife basket.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items
such as knives.
Removable knife basket
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives
must be placed horizontally in the removable knife basket,
which is positioned at the rear of the upper basket.
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket
with the handles facing downwards.
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket,
obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the
handles facing upwards.
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking
together.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery.
Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.
For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grids
provided (if the size and dimensions of cutlery allow it).
The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to
give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts,
slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them
apart.
To reassemble, reverse the procedure.
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,
saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 cm in diameter), salad
bowls, cups and glasses.
Arrange items on and underneath the fold-down cup racks
so that water can reach all surfaces.
Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper
basket and arranged so they do not move.
In case that plates are loaded in the upper
basket:
load them starting from the rear posiitons of the basket;
tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions
near the door.
Before closing the door, ensure that the
spray arms can rotate freely.
