Electrolux ESF 6100 Dishwasher User Manual


 
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 lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates,
salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Large dishes and lids should be arranged around the edge of
the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can turn freely.
The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily
lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.
To lower the prongs:
- Slightly pull them upwards and let them drop down (see
picture).
- To bring them back to the standing position, just pull them
up again.
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 with
the handles facing downwards.
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket,
obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the
handles facing upwards.
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking
together.
Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery.
Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others.
For best results we recommend to use the cutlery grid
provided (if the size and the dimensions of the cutlery allow it).
The cutlery basket can be
placed either to the left or to
the right of the lower basket.
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates,
saucers, dinner plates of up to 25 cm in diameter), salad
bowls, cups and glasses.
Arrange items on and
underneath the cup racks so
that water can reach all
surfaces.
For taller items, the cup racks
can be folded upwards.
Light items (plastic bowls 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 washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 32 cm in
diameter) you can load them in the lower 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
outward 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 cup racks.
After loading your machine always close the door, as an
open door can be a hazard.
