The cutlery basket
Long bladed knives stored in an upright
position are a potential hazard. Long
and/or sharp items of cutlery such as
carving knives must be positioned
horizontally in the upper basket. Take
care when loading or unloading sharp
items such as knives.
Forks and spoons must be placed in the re-
movable cutlery basket with the handles fac-
ing downwards and the knives with their han-
dles facing upwards.
If the handles protrude from the bottom of the
basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load
the cutlery with the handles facing upwards.
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent
them from sticking together.
For best results we recommend that you use
the cutlery grids (if the size and dimensions
of the cutlery allow it).
For larger utensils use only 1 grid.
The upper basket
The upper basket is designed for saucers,
salad bowls, cups, glasses, pots and lids.
Arrange items on and underneath the cup
racks so that water can reach all surfaces.
Glasses with long stems can be placed up-
side down in the cup racks. For taller items
the cup racks can be folded upwards.
Before closing the door, ensured that
the spray arms can rotate freely.
Adjusting the height of the upper basket
If washing very large plates you can load
them in the lower basket after moving the
upper basket to the higher position.
