Loading your appliance
Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of
food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing
the performance.
Do not load very small items which can fall
through the baskets.
The lower basket
The lo er basket is designed to take saucepans, lids,
plates, salad bo ls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the
edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can
turn freely.
The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position
are a potential hazard.
Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as
carving knives must be positioned horizontally in
the upper basket.
Take care when loading or unloading sharp items
such as knives.
Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket
ith the handles facing do n ards.
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket,
obstructing the lo er spray arm, load the cutlery ith the
handles facing up ards.
Mix spoons ith other cutlery to prevent them from sticking
together.
For best results e recommend to use the cutlery grid
provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allo it).

The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,
saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 cm in diameter), salad
bo ls, cups and glasses.
Arrange items on and underneath the fold-do n cup racks
so that ater can reach all surfaces.
Light items (plastic bo ls etc.) should be loaded in the
upper basket and arranged so they do not move.
In case that plates are loaded in the
upper basket:
load them starting from the rear positions of the basket;
tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front
positions near the door.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray
arms can rotate freely.
Adjusting the height of the upper
basket
If ashing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 32 cm
in diameter) you can load them in the lo er basket after
moving the upper basket to the higher position.
To move to the higher position proceed as follows:
1. Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket
out ards and slide the basket out.
2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the
stops (A) in their original position.
When the top basket is in the higher position it
will only take plates up to 20 cm in diameter
and you will not be able to use the raised cup
racks.
After loading your machine always close the
door, as an open door can be a hazard.
