DAILY USE
ADVICE AND TIPS
TIPS
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the crock-
ery and empty the glasses.
You do not need to rinse beforehand
under running water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place fi rmly and does not tip
over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing down-
wards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing
the water to reach every surface and fl ow freely.
Warning:
lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the
sprayer arms from rotating.
Place any small items in the cutlery basket.
Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower basket be-
cause in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher
washing performance.
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can
rotate freely.
HYGIENE
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the dish-
washer please run a high temperature program at least one a month.
Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the loading to clean
your appliance.
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.
• Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique crockery.
Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high tempera-
tures.
• Copper and tin crockery.
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass
(e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash
cycles too.
