LOADING THE RACKS

UPPER RACK
(loading example for the upper rack)
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE UPPER RACK
The height of the upper basket can be adjusted: high position to place
bulky crockery in the lower basket and low position to make the most
of the tip-up compartments by creating more space upwards.
The upper rack is equipped with a Upper Rack
height adjuster (see figure), without pressing
the levers, lift it up by simply holding the rack
sides, as soon as the rack is stable in its upper
position. To restore to the lower position, press
the levers (A) at the sides of the rack and move
the basket downwards.
We strongly recommend that you do not ad-
just the height of the rack when it is loaded.
NEVER raise or lower the basket on one side
only.
FOLDABLE FLAPS WITH ADJUSTABLE POSITION
The side foldable flaps can be fold or
unfold to optimize the arrangement
of crockery inside the rack.
Wine glasses can be placed safely in
the foldable flaps by inserting the
stem of each glass into the corre-
sponding slots.
Depending on the model:
– to unfold the flaps there is needed
to slide it up and rotate or release it
from the snaps and pull it down.
– to fold the flaps there is needed to
rotate it and slide flaps down or pull it up and attach flaps to the snaps.
Load delicate and light dishes:
glasses, cups, saucers, low salad
bowls.
LOWER RACK
For pots, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Large plates and lids should
ideally be placed at the sides to avoid interferences with the spray arm.
The lower rack has tip-up supports which can be used in a vertical po-
sition when arranging plates or in a horizontal position (lower) to load
pans and salad bowls easily.

CUTLERY BASKET
The basket is equipped with top grilles for improved cutlery
arrangement. The cutlery basket should be positioned only at the front
of the lower rack.
Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be placed in the
cutlery basket with the points facing downwards or they must be
positioned horizontally in the tip-up compartments on the upper
rack.
