LOADING THE DISHWASHER BASKETS
For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Features and
appearance of baskets and silverware baskets may vary from your model.
Attention before or after Loading the Dishwasher Baskets
Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under
running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in the following way:
1.Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are stood upside down.
2.Curve items, or those with recesses, should be at a slant so that water can run off.
3.They are stacked securely and can not tip over.
4.They do not prevent the spray arms from rotating while washing takes place.
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the
baskets.
Removing the Dishes
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.

NOTE:
You find information about the amount of detergent for the single programme on the last
page. Please be aware that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water,
differences are possible. Please observe the manufacturer’s recommendations on the
detergent packaging.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chloride
Normally new pulverized detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function
of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even
when the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate were used in
case of hard water often white spots appear at dishes and glasses. In this case please add
more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little.
Strong and coloured spots will not removed completely. In this case please choose
a programme with higher temperature.
Loading the Upper Basket
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee
and tea cup and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not
too dirty). Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.
