Scrape excess food from the dishes before loading.
Start your dishwasher after fully loading the machine.
Do not use the pre-wash programme unless required.
Make your programme selection as per the programme chart and quick reference guide supplied.
What should not be washed in your dishwasher
Do not wash items soiled with cigarette ash, candle, paint wax, dyes, chemicals etc.
Do not wash cutlery with wooden or bone handles, items stuck together with adhesives or plastic items not
resistant to high temperatures, copper, tin items and aluminium ware in your dishwasher.
Loading the dishwasher
Loading the dishwasher correctly will increase the washing, drying and energy performance of your machine.
Remove any large scraps of food from the dishes before placing in the dishwasher to avoid clogging the filters.
There are three separate baskets in which you can put your dishes.
Place large or heavily soiled items in the lower basket and small, light or delicate articles in the upper basket. Put
forks, small and medium size knives and spoons in the cutlery basket.
Place tall, narrow items in the middle of the racks.
Long- stemmed glasses should lean against the basket, the racks, or the supports not against the dishes.
The shelves on the rack are made height adjustable to accommodate tall items.
When loading your dishwasher please ensure tall glasses rest against the sides of the upper basket. Do not allow
tall glasses to rest against each other since they may be damaged during washing if not properly supported.
Always arrange saucepans, cups and glasses upside down.
