Loading your appliance

Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of
food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing
the performance. 

Do not load very small items which can fall through the
baskets. 

Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.

The lower basket

The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates,
salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the
edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can
turn freely.

The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily
lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.
To lower the prongs:
- Slightly pull them upward and let them drop down (see 

picture). 

- To bring them back to the standing position, just pull them 

up again. 

The cutlery basket

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.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as
knives.

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.

The upper basket 

The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,
saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad
bowls, cups and glasses. 

Arrange items so that water
can reach all surfaces. 

Glasses with long stems can
be placed upside down in the
cup racks.

Light items (plastic bowls
etc.) should be loaded in the
upper basket and arranged
so they do not move.

Attention!
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can
rotate freely. 

Adjusting the height of the upper
basket 

If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in
diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving
the upper basket to the higher position. 

To move to the higher position proceed as follows:

1. Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket 

outwards and slide the basket out. 

2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the 

stops (A) in their original position. 

When the top basket is in the higher position it will only take
plates up to 20 cm in diameter and you will not be able to use
the cup racks. 

Attention!
After loading your machine always close the door, as an
open door can be a hazard.
