Recommendations for loading the dishwasher
Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not
necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.
For best performance remove follow these loading guidelines.
Place objects in the dishwasher in the following way:
Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are faced downwards.
Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded on a slant so that water can run off.
All utensils are stacked securely and cannot tip over.
Be sure that no wash items protrude through the basket base where they will likely damage
the spray arm.
Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so
that water cannot collect in the item.
Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
