Loading the dishwasher
Greener dishwashing
•
Do not rinse under running water. Simply scrape off
large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
•
Choose an environmentally-friendly detergent. Read the
environmental declaration on the packaging!
•
Do not start the dishwasher until it is fully loaded to save
energy.
•
If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select a
program with a low temperature.
•
Better drying results are achieved if you use the Door
Open option, which automatically opens the dishwasher
door. Wait until the dishwasher indicates that the pro-
gram has ended and the dishes have cooled before
unloading the dishwasher. (If the dishwasher is built-in,
the surrounding furnishings must be resistant to any
condensation from the dishwasher.)
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for
several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand high
temperatures, others can be damaged by dishwasher deter-
gent.
Use caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile
decoration, crystal/glassware, silver, copper, tin, aluminum,
wood, and plastic. Look for the "Dishwasher safe" marking.
Points to consider
•
All dirty surfaces should face in and down!
•
Dishes should not be placed in or on each other.
•
Angle dishes with hollows, such as cups, so that the
rinse water will run off. This is also important for plastic
items.
•
Place the upper basket in its highest position when
dishwashing very large plates.
•
Make sure small items cannot fall through the dishwash-
er basket; place them in the cutlery basket.
NOTE!
Check that the spray arms can rotate freely.
The baskets
The dishwasher includes an upper, a lower, and a cutlery
basket.
The basket appearance may differ depending on the config-
uration.
Upper basket
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and saucers in the
upper basket. Place all soiled surfaces face down! Place
wine glasses on the wine glass shelf. Place knives in the
knife stand on the right (if space allows).
Raising and lowering the upper basket
1.
Pull out the upper basket.
2.
Grab the sides of the upper basket with both hands and
lift it up.
3.
Repeatedly lift the basket with both hands to change its
position. (The upper basket can be set in three posi-
tions.) When the upper basket is in the highest position,
lifting it will return it to the lowest position. Note that both
sides of the basket must always be set to the same
height.
