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 position
when arranging plates or in a horizontal
position (lower) to load pans and salad
bowls easily.
(loading example for the lower rack)
Unsuitable crockery
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.
• Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique
crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high
temperatures.
• Copper and tin crockery.
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass
(e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash
cycles too.
Damage to glass and crockery
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufacturer
as dishwasher safe.
• Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery
• Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the
wash cycle is over.
Hygiene
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the
dishwasher please run a high temperature program at least once a
month. Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the loading In order to maximize dishwasher efficiency it is recommended to

• In order to maximize dishwasher efficiency it is recommended
to initiate the wash cycle once dishwasher is fully loaded.
Loading the household dishwasher up to the capacity
indicated by the manufacturer will contribute to energy and
water savings. Information on correct loading of tableware
can be found in Loading chapter. In case of partial loading it
is recommended to use dedicated wash options if available
(Flexible wash), fiilling up only selected racks. Incorrect loading
or overloading the dishwasher may increase resources usage
(such as water, energy and time, as well as increase noise level),
reducing cleaning and drying performance.
• Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water
and energy consumption and is not recommended.
