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.
The cutlery basket is in two parts which can be separated to
give greater loading flexibility. To separate the two parts,
slide them horizontally in opposite directions and pull them
apart.
To reassemble, reverse the procedure.
