How to load your dishes

Before washing, a few small steps can help you get a better wash and keep your dishwasher for longer. Remove the largest scraps of food left over on your plates, soak saucepans and frying pans with tough incrustations. After loading your dishes, make sure the blades on the sprayer arm turn well

First of all.

Before placing the dishes in the racks, remove the largest scraps of food left over on your plates, you will thus avoid blocking the filter, which would reduce the efficacy of the wash. If the saucepans and frying pans are very dirty, allow them to soak before being washed. To make it easier to load your dishes, pull the racks out.

Multisystem racks

This dishwasher model is fitted with newer and more modern upper and lower racks and a cutlery basket. They are made to provide greater flexibility in loading dishes, making them more suitable to meet your specific needs. The rack handles can be cleaned regularly: pull out the two fastening plugs, remove the handles and rinse them under running water. Put the handles back in place and fasten them using the plugs you removed previously.

basket is fitted with two detachable side compartments, as shown in figure A1, which can be hooked on either to the upper or lower rack, as required.

What goes into the upper rack?

Place delicate and lightweight dishes in the upper rack: glasses, tea cups and coffee cups, saucers

- but plates too - shallow salad bowls, slightly dirty frying pans and shallow pans. Position light weight dishes in such a way as to avoid their being moved by the spray of water. The appliance can also be equipped with one or two tip-up compartments onto which you can place mugs and cups, as well as long sharp knives and serving cutlery. After loading the dishes, remember to check that the blades on the sprayer arms can turn freely without hitting against any dishes.

What goes into the lower rack?

We recommend you place the most difficult dishes to wash into the lower rack: saucepans, lids, soup dishes and plates, but also: mugs, cups and glasses (see photos for load examples).

 Serving dishes and large

lids: place them on the sides

of the rack.

 Saucepans, salad bowls:

must always be placed upside down

 Very deep dishes: place

them obliquely, thus allowing water to run down them and cleaning them better

 Glasses and cups: Position

them as indicated in the figure.

The cutlery basket can be split up by pulling out the handle and removing the metal clip that keeps the two parts joined together. When you only have little cutlery to wash, you can use just half the basket; save space for other crockery or place the other half of the basket in the upper rack instead (see figures A and B). This basket is equipped with two removable grids: insert the cutlery one by one into the slots, with the handles at the bottom. Position them so that they don't touch. In this specific model, the cutlery
