Loading dishes
To load dishes
For good wash performance remove any debris from the dishes (bones, tooth picks,
the remains of meat and vegetables) to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and
washing arm nozzles and, as a result, reducing washing efficiency.
Try not to rinse the dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.
If saucepans and oven dishes are encrusted with the remains of burnt or roast food,
it is advisable to leave them to soak before washing.
Using the upper basket
The upper basket is provided with mobile racks hooked to the sides of the basket
which can be regulated in two positions: upright and lowered. In the lowered position
the racks may be used for tea and coffee cups, kitchen knives and ladles. Glasses
with stems may be safely hung on the ends of the racks.
Glasses, cups, saucers and dessert plates may be loaded under the racks.
Soup plates and ordinary plates may be loaded with the rack in the upright position.
Plates should be loaded vertically with the underside of the plate towards the back of
the dishwasher with a space between each plate to allow water to pass freely.
It is advisable to load plates of the same size together in order to utilize maximum
basket capacity.
Plates may be loaded in a single row (Fig. 1) or on both rows (Fig. 2).
It is advisable to load large plates (approx. 27 or more cm) slightly tilted towards the
rear to facilitate introduction of the basket into the machine.
Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also be loaded on the upper basket. It is advisa-
ble to block these in place so that the jets of water do not make them overturn.
The upper basket has been designed to offer maximum flexibility in use and can be
loaded with up to 24 plates on two rows, up to 30 glasses on five rows or a mixed
load.
Using the lower basket
Saucepans, oven dishes, tureens, salad bowls, lids, serving dishes, dinner plates,
soup plates and ladles can be loaded on the lower basket.
Place the cutlery in the plastic cutlery holder with the handles pointing upwards.
Place the cutlery holder on the lower basket (fig. 3), making sure that the cutlery does
not get in the way of the rotating arms.
