LOADING THE RACKS

UPPER RACK

(loading example for the upper rack)
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE UPPER RACK
The height of the upper rack can be adjusted:
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 avoid collision with the
items loaded into lower rack.
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 adjust 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
corresponding 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.
ZONE WASH 3D
Zone Wash 3D uses additional water jets located
both: in the lower and upper part of the dishwasher
(marked with orange color) to wash more intensi-
vely heavily soiled items by increasing water cove-
rage on dishes.
Example: Load pots and casseroles facing lower part
of Zone Wash 3D components and activate the 3D
Zone Wash option on the panel.
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
It is fitted with top grids for improved cutlery arrangement.
It must only be positioned 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.
SLIDING TRAY
The upper rack is fitted with a sliding tray which can be used to hold
small crockery and cutlery. For optimum washing performance, avoid
positioning bulky crockery directly below the tray. The tray is removable.
