CUTLERY BASKET
The basket has removable top grids into which items of cutlery can be
inserted to keep them properly spaced and allow water to pass between
them effectively.
The cutlery supports and central lid are in the bag of accessories. The
central lid is intended to act only as a cover: do not place the cutlery in it.
The cutlery should be arranged in an orderly
manner inside the basket, with the handles pointing
downwards. Take care during loading to avoid
injury from the knife blades. The basket is suitable
for all types of cutlery, except those long enough to
interfere with the upper spray arm. Ladles, wooden
spoons and cooking knives can be placed in the
upper basket, making sure that the knife blades
do not protrude from the basket.
UPPER BASKET
It is recommended to load the upper basket with small- or medium-sized
items such as glasses, small plates, tea or coffee cups, shallow bowls
and light objects made from heat resistant plastic. If the upper basket is
used in the lowermost position, it can also be loaded with serving dishes,
provided they are only slightly soiled.
LOADING THE UPPER BASKET
Load plates facing forward; cups, bowls etc. must always be facing
downwards. The left side of the basket can be loaded with cups and
glasses on two levels. In the centre section, plates and saucers can be
loaded vertically into the supports provided.
