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.

Multisystem baskets
The dishwasher is fitted with upper,
lower and cutlery baskets. They
provide greater flexibility for loading
dishes, making them more suitable
for your specific needs.

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

• Glasses and cups: position

them as shown in load example
photo.

The cutlery basket may be split into
two parts by pulling out the handle.
When you only have a little cutlery
to wash you can use just half the
basket, save space for other
crockery or place the other half in
the upper basket instead (see
figures A and B).
Knives and utensils with sharp
blades or tips should be positioned
with the sharp parts at the bottom.
This basket is equipped with two
removable grids. Insert the cutlery
one by one into the slots, with the
handles at the bottom. Position them
so that they don’t touch.
In this specific model, the cutlery
basket is fitted with two detachable
side compartments, as shown in
figure A1, which can be hooked on
either the upper or lower basket as
required.

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 a
way as to avoid their being moved
by the spray of water.
The dishwasher can also be
equipped with one or two tip up
compartments onto which you can
place mugs and cups, as well as
long sharp knives and serving
cutlery.

After loading the dishes, remember
to check that the  spray arms can
turn freely without hitting against
any dishes.

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.
