9. Loading the dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food particles to prevent the filter from
becoming clogged, which results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that
they are soaked before washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.
Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.
9-1.How to use the lower rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on
the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as
shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the
racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down(see fig.C) .
Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
9-2.How to use the upper rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small
bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get
moved by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs
located on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.D).
Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have
more space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in
the bottom basket.
9-3.Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelfnot
against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack.
The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required
(see fig.E).
Warning:
knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their
points down or placed in a horizontal position.
