drainage
hose is connected to a
sink "s"
trap
or
waste
disposal
unit,
the

HOW TO USE
AND
OPERATE
1.
Loading your
Dishwasher
3.
Using
the
Cutlery
Basket
For the best
washing performance,
it is
important
that the
dishwasher
is loaded
according
to instructions.
Before
loading
items into the
dishwasher,
you
must
scrape
off
large particles
in
particular
non soluble items such as
bones,
toothpicks, pips,
etc.
When
loading
the
dishwasher,
observe
the
following general guidelines:
Position
crockery
such that
water will
contact all surfaces.
Deep
based items should be
placed
at an
angle
to
help
water
run off and
dry
properly.
Items
with
burnt on
scraps
should be
soaked
prior
to
loading
in the
dishwasher.
Cutlery
should be mixed
within
each
section of the
cutlery
basket to
prevent
nesting
of similar items. Place the
cutlery
in
the
cover with
the handles
down.
The
cover
can be
hinged
and
clipped away
from the
basket if
you
choose not to use them.
Take care when
loading
and
unloading
sharp
items.
2.
Loading
the Lower Rack
The
lower
basket is best loaded
with
dinner
plates, soup
bowls, dishes,
pots, pans,
lids
and
even
the
grill tray.
Plates should be
positioned upright
and
facing
the center of the rack.
Pots,
pans
and
large
dishes must be turned
upside
down.
Take care not to obstruct the rotation
of the
spray
arms,
and that
larger
items
do not
prevent
the
detergent dispenser
lid
from
opening.
