Loading the racks
Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from
the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.
After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms
can rotate freely.
Lower rack
The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery,
etc. as seen in the
Loading examples.
Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the
rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper
sprayer arm.
Cutlery basket
The cutlery basket must
only
be positioned at the front of the
lower rack.
The cutlery basket is
fi
tted with a collapsible sliding system
which means the cutlery can be arranged in the best possible
way.
Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed
in the cutlery basket with the points facing downwards, or they
must be positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on
the upper rack.
Upper rack
Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery:
glasses, tea and coffee cups, saucers, small salad bowls,
saucepans and small saucepans which are not too soiled,
using the
Loading examples
as a guide.
Mugs and cups, long sharp knives and serving utensils:
place these on the tip-up compartments.
Adjusting the height of the upper rack
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper
rack may be moved to a higher or lower level.
The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted
WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.
Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.
Open the left and right guide rail stops
and pull out the rack; position it higher
or lower as required, slide it along the
guide rails until the front wheels are in
place and close the stops
(see
fi
gure).
