The Cutlery Basket - AEG FAVORIT 84470 Instruction Book

Operating instructions

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.
Place knives, forks and spoons in the cutlery basket with their handles
pointing downwards.
Arrange cutlery loosely and distribute it in all compartments so that
each individual article has good contact with washing water. Also do
not arrange spoons and forks with their dirty side in contact with each
other.
Important! Exceptionally long cutlery, such as soup ladles, kitchen kni-
ves, or the like, may obstruct the upper spray arm. Such cutlery can be
placed in the upper basket.
To unload your dishwasher more easily, you can take the cutlery basket
out of the lower basket and unfold it. this makes it easier to remove
small pieces of cutlery.
Important note! To prevent the full cutlery basket from inadvertently
unfolding when being taken out, place your hand right round the two-
piece handle and hold it firmly.
1. Place the cutlery basket on a firm support (table, worktop) and un-
fold both handle parts.
2. After unloading, fold back both handle parts.
