Loading the racks
Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the
crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.
After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms can
rotate freely.
Lower rack
The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery,
etc. as seen in the Loading examples.
Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the
rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper
sprayer arm.
Some dishwasher
models are fitted with
tip-up sections
*,
which can be used in
a vertical position
when arranging
plates or in a horizontal position when arranging pans and salad
bowls.
Cutlery basket
The type of cutlery basket may vary according to the dishwasher
model: it may be modular, non-modular or a sliding version. The
non-modular basket must only be positioned at the front of the
lower rack.
The modular basket
may be separated
into two parts, a
solution which is
recommended when
performing a half
load wash (only in models offering this option), is available in a
sliding version (positioned at any point on the lower rack by
sliding it between the fixed or tip-up inserts.
- Both versions are fitted with a collapsible sliding system which
means the cutlery can be arranged in the best possible way.
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.

Upper rack
Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery: glasses,
tea and coffee cups, saucers, small salad bowls, saucepans and
small saucepans which are not too soiled, using the Loading
examples as a guide.
 Mugs and cups: place these on the tip-up compartments
**.
 Long sharp knives and serving utensils: place these on the tip-
up compartments
**.
Adjusting the height of the upper rack
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack
may be moved to a higher or lower level.
The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted
WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.
Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.
Open the left and right guide rail stops and
pull out the rack; position it higher or lower as
required, slide it along the guide rails until the
front wheels are in place and close the stops
(see figure).
If the rack is fitted with Dual Space
handles* (see figure), pull out the upper rack
until it reaches its stop point, grip the
handles at the sides of the rack and move it
upwards or downwards, then slowly let it fall
back into place.

Knife/Glass rack accessory
*
Several dishwasher models are
equipped with a knife/glass rack
accessory which can be used to hold
knives, utensils with sharp edges and
glasses in complete safety while
optimal washing results are achieved.
The accessory should only be positioned on the right-hand
side of the upper rack.
Items which should not be washed in the dishwasher
 Wooden items, objects with wooden or horn handles or glued-
on parts.
 Items made from aluminium, copper, brass, pewter or tin.
 Items made from plastic material which is not heat-resistant.
 Antique or hand-painted porcelain.
 Antique silver. Silver which is not antique may, however, be
washed in the dishwasher using a delicate wash cycle,
provided that it does not come into contact with other metals.
We recommend the use of crockery which is dishwasher safe.
* Only available in selected models.
** The number and position may vary.
