Operating sequence

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.
Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
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.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed ith steel cutlery.
Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.
For best results e recommend to use the cutlery grids
provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allo it).
The cutlery basket is in t o parts hich can be separated to
give greater loading flexibility. To separate the t o parts, slide
them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them apart. to
reassemble, reverse the procedure.
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,
saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad
bo ls, cups and glasses.
Arrange items so that ater
can reach all surfaces.
Glasses ith long stems can
be placed upside do n in the
cup racks.
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 forwards and
avoiding the front positions
near the door.
Attention!
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 31 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 ill only take
