Loading the lower basket
The lower basket is most suited to washing larger and more heavily
soiled items, such as saucepans, saucepan lids and serving dishes. You
can also load bowls and a variety of plates into the lower basket.

o
Use the diagram above as a guide to the most appropriate way
to load the lower basket.
o
Saucepans and serving bowls must always be placed with their
bases upwards.
o
Deep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off.
The cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket, separately from
each other. You should take care to ensure that cutlery items are not
tightly loaded as this may result in a poor wash performance.
o
The cutlery basket can be split in half for when there are only a
small number of cutlery items to be washed, as shown in the
diagram on the next page.
o
By only using half of the cutlery basket, this will create more
space for additional pots and pans. The cutlery basket can also
be placed in the upper rack when it is half the size.
