Loading your Dishwasher
First of all.
Before placing dishes in the
baskets, remove all course food
remains. This avoids blocking the
filter, which would reduce the
efficiency of the wash.
If saucepans and frying pans are
very dirty, allow them to soak before
being washed.
To make it easier to load your
dishes, pull the baskets out.
What goes into the lower
basket?
We recommend you place the most
difficult dishes to wash into the
lower basket: saucepans, lids, soup
dishes and plates (a load example
is shown in the photo).
Serving dishes and large lids:
place them on the sides of the
basket.
Saucepans, salad bowls: must
always be placed upside down
Very deep dishes: place them
obliquely, thus allowing water to
run down them and cleaning
them better
This basket is equipped with two
removable grids: insert the cutlery
one by one into the slots;
knives
and utensils with sharp blades or
tips should be positioned with the
sharp parts at the bottom. Position
all cutlery items so that they don't
touch.
If the basket is the one with side
inserts, then insert the tea spoons
one by one into the slots.
lower basket
It is best if you place longer utensils
horizontally at the front of the upper
basket.
After loading the dishes, remember
to check that the spray arms can
turn freely without hitting against
any dishes.
What goes into the upper
basket?
Place delicate and lightweight
dishes in the upper basket: glasses,
tea cups and coffee cups, saucers
and plates - shallow salad bowls,
slightly dirty frying pans and
shallow pans.
Position lightweight dishes in such
as way as to avoid their being
moved by the spray of water.
How to adjust the upper
basket.
The upper basket can be set in high
or low position to enable you to
organise your dishes effortlessly.
