LOADING THE RACKS

CUTLERY RACK
The third rack was designed to house the cutlery.
Arrange the cutlery as shown in the figure.
A  separate arrangement of the cutlery makes
collection easier after washing and improves
washing and drying performance.
Knives and other utensils with sharp edges
must be positioned with the blades facing
downwards.
The cutlery rack is equipped with two sliding
side trays to make the most of the height of the
space below and enable the loading of high
items into the upper rack.
UPPER RACK
Load delicate and light dishes: glasses, cups,
saucers, low salad bowls.
The upper rack has tip-up supports which can
be used in a  vertical position when arranging
tea/ dessert saucers or in a  lower position to
load bowls and food containers.
(loading example for the upper rack)
Adjusting the height of the upper rack
The height of the upper rack can be adjusted: a high position to place bulky
crockery in the lower basket and low position to make the most of the tip-
up supports by creating more space upwards and avoiding collision with
the items loaded into the lower rack.
The upper rack is equipped with an Upper Rack
height adjuster (see figure), without pressing the le-
vers, 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 adjust
the height of the rack when it is loaded.
NEVER raise or lower the basket on one side only.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
Regularly clean the filter assembly so that the filters do not clog and that
the waste water flows away correctly.
Using the dishwasher with clogged filters or foreign objects inside the fil-
tration system or spray arms may cause unit malfunction resulting in loss of
performance, noisy work or higher resources usage.
The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues
from the washing water and then recirculate the water.
The dishwasher must not be used without filters or if the filter is loose.
At least once per month or after every 30 cycles, check the filter assembly
and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-me-
tallic brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical filter A in an anti-clockwise direction and pull it out
(Fig 1). It is important when reinstalling the filter that the two trian-
gles shown on the zoom meet.
2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side flaps (Fig 2).
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate filter C (Fig 3).
4. In case you find foreign objects (such as broken glass, porcelain, bones,
fruit seeds etc.) please remove them carefully.
5. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER REMOVE the
wash-cycle pump protection (shown by an arrow) (Fig 4).
After cleaning the filters, replace the filter assembly and fix it in position cor-
rectly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient operation of the dishwasher.

Foldable flaps with adjustable position
The side foldable flaps can be folded or unfolded
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 corresponding slots.
Depending on the model:
• to unfold the flap there is needed to slide it up
and rotate or release it from the snaps and pull
it down.
• to fold the flap there is needed to rotate it and
slide flap down or pull it up and attach flap to
the snaps.
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)
POWER CLEAN®
Power Clean® uses the special water jets in
the rear of cavity to wash more intensively
the highly dirty items. The lower rack has
a Space Zone, a special pull-out support in
the rear of the rack that can be used to sup-
port frying pans or baking pans in upright
position, thus taking up less space.
Placing the pots/casseroles faced to the
Power Clean® component please activate
the POWER CLEAN® on the panel.
How to use Power Clean®:
1. Adjust the Power Clean® area G folding
down the rear plate holders to load pots.
2. Load pots and casseroles inclined vertical-
ly in Power Clean® area. Pots have to be
inclined towards the powerful water jets.
