loading the dishwasher
before loading the dishwasher
In general, please observe the following notes before loading your cutlery and crockery into the
basket.
• Remove lipstick stains and any food residues from crockery and dishes. Rinse if necessary.
• Dishes and cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
• Load your cutlery and crockery so that water can access all surfaces.
• Ensure all items are securely positioned.
• Hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. must be placed upside down in the basket.
• Wide based items should be placed at an angle so that water can run off them freely.
• The spray arms must not be blocked by items which are too tall or hang through the baskets. If
in doubt, test for free movement by manually rotating the spray arms.
• Ensure that small items cannot fall through the holders in the baskets.
• For safety reasons, do not operate the dishwasher without the dishwasher basket in
place.
• Do not wash items soiled with ash, sand, wax, lubricating grease or paint in the
dishwasher. These items can damage the dishwasher. Ash does not dissolve and will be
distributed in the dishwasher.
• For safety reasons, do not operate the dishwasher without the upper and lower baskets in
place.
