To minimise these conditions, it is recommended to periodically
operate/rinse the inside of the dishwasher (empty) using 1 cup of
white vinegar (at least once a week)�
Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read
the following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed
and their loading�
Before loading the dishes into the baskets it is necessary to:
• Remove coarse food remains, e�g� bones, which may clog the filter
or damage the wash pump�
• Soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on the bottom
then load them into the basket�
There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running water before
loading them into the basket�
WARNINGS:
• Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot
tip over or obstruct the rotation of the spray arms during the
washing cycle�
• Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be
loaded with the opening facing downwards and with any cavities
at an angle, to allow the water to drain out�
• Do not stack dishes�
• Do not place glasses too close together because they may knock
against each other and break�
• Load large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower
basket�
• Make sure that the items being washed are dishwasher-safe�

Items which are not dishwasher-safe:
• Wooden dishes, pots or pans

Loading the upper and lower baskets
