Loading the lower basket
We suggest that you place large items and the most difficult
to clean items in the lower basket: such as pots, pans, lids,
serving dishes and bowls, as illustrated below. It is prefera-
ble to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks
in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
The maximum recommended diameter for plates in front of
the detergent dispenser is 19 cm, so that the dispenser can
be opened easily.
Loading the cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery rack separately from
each other and in the appropriate positions, making sure
that the utensils do not nest together, as this could impair
performance.
WARNING
Do not let any item stick through the tray bottom.
Always load sharp utensils with the sharp point down!
For the best washing results, load the baskets according to the
standard loading options in the section Loading the baskets
according to the european standard EN 50242
Purpose of rinse aid and detergent
Rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water
from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots
and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to
run off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid
rinse aids.
WARNING
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser
with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent).
This would damage the appliance.
When to refill the rinse aid dispenser
Unless the rinse aid warning light ( ) on the control panel
is on, you can always estimate the amount from the colour
of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When
the rinse aid container is full, the indicator will be completely
dark. The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse aid is
used up. You should never let the rinse aid level fall below
1/4 full.
As the rinse aid is used up, the size of the black dot on the
rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

Purpose of detergent
The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are
necessary to remove, dissolve and flush all dirt out of the
dishwasher. Most of the commercial-quality detergents are
suitable for this purpose.
WARNING
• Correct use of detergent
Use only detergent that is specifically intended for dishwasher use. Keep
your detergent fresh and dry.
Don’t put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to
wash dishes.
•
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep dishwasher
detergent out of the reach of children.
Filling the rinse aid dispenser
Replace the cap by aligning it with the
“open” arrow and turning it towards the
closed (right) arrow.
NOTE
:
Clean up any spilled rinse aid with an absorbent cloth to
avoid excessive foaming during the next wash.
Carefully pour the rinse aid into the
dispenser, but avoid overfilling it.
