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.
For the
knives,
place
at
seperate
rack for
knives
located at
upper
rack.
Take care when
loading
and
unloading
sharp
items.
Be careful
large
items not to
prevent
the
detergent dispenser
lid from
opening
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.
Your
upper
rack can be raised or
lowered
to
cater for different size of
crockery.
Before
adjusting,
ensure rack is
empty
of
all
crockery.
You can
change
the
position
of the
upper
rack
by pulling
the rack
upward(to upper
position)
or
pulling
the
two levers
on the
left and
right
sides of the rack to take the
rack
down
(to
lower
position).
It is recommended to
level
the
upper
rack
gently
for more
convenience
and correct
operation.
And
when
you pull
the rack
upward,
hold
the middle location of the
upper
rack
(
marked
position)
After
adjusting,
check that the
spray
arm
is free to rotate.
5.
Adjusting
the
Upper
