Loading The Machine - Miele G 8050 Operating Instructions Manual

Preparing the load
^ Remove coarse residues and empty
all containers before loading into the
machine.
Please note
^ Load items so that water will come
into contact with all surfaces. This
ensures that they will be properly
cleaned.
^ Do not place items to be cleaned
inside other pieces where they may
be concealed.
^ Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pots etc. should be inverted and
placed in the correct inserts. The wa-
ter must be able to access them
unhindered.
^ Deep-sided items should be placed
at an angle to make sure water runs
off them freely.
^ Tall, narrow, hollow items should be
placed in the centre of the baskets to
ensure better water coverage.
^ Small items should be placed on the
cup racks in the upper basket. Do
not obscure them by larger items
below, e.g. place bowls on the rack
above the cups so that water reaches
all items.

Loading the machine

^ The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall or which
hang down in their path. If in doubt,
test for free movement by manually
rotating the spray arms.
^ Do not place very tall items in the
front right hand area of the lower
basket as these would prevent the
detergent dispenser lid from
opening.
Use the upper basket for:
^ Small, lightweight delicate items such
as cups, saucers, glasses, dessert
bowls etc., as well as for lightweight,
thermally stable, plastic items.
Use the bottom basket for:
^ Larger and heavier items such as
plates, serving dishes, saucepans,
bowls etc. Glasses may only be
cleaned in the bottom basket if it is
fitted with a special glassware insert
or if there is a special bottom basket.
Cutlery
^ Unsorted cutlery should be placed in
the cutlery holders with the handles
facing downwards.
However, to avoid the risks of injury
etc. sharp knives and forks should be
placed with the pointed end facing
downwards.
Select baskets and inserts which are
appropriate for the application.
See examples on the following
pages.
