Loading cutlery and dishes

The lower basket
The lower basket is designed to take sauce-
pan, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Service dishes and large lids should be ar-
ranged around the edge of the basket, en-
suring that the spray arms can turn freely.
The rows of prongs in the lower basket can
lie flat to allow you to load pots, pans and
bowls.
• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be
loaded in the upper basket and arranged
so they do not move.
are of limited suitability:
• Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is
specially marked as being dishwasher-safe by
the manufacturer.
• Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed
frequently.
• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to
discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg
white, egg yolk and mustard often cause dis-
colouring and staining on silver. Therefore al-
ways clean left-overs from silver immediately, if
it is not to be washed straight after use.
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 should be placed in the
removable cutlery basket with the handles
facing downwards and the knives with their
handles facing upwards.
