2.3 Preliminary cleaning. You should run a
preliminary wash (without detergent,
dishes or rinse aid). First of all, if you
need to, load the dishwasher with salt
(2.3.1) without completely filling the
compartment. Fill it up with water (2.3.2)
and stir with a spoon. Close the lid and
start the programme.
SUPER EASY: hold the basket by the
side handles and pull upwards with both
hands at the same time (both to raise and
lower it)(3.1.2). Ensure that it is level.
NORMAL: with the basket empty,
remove the stops (3.1.3); take the basket
out (3.1.4); insert it at the required height
and fit the stop back into place.
3.2 Putting the dishes into the machine.
Ensure that the dishes are
dishwasher-safe.
It is not advisable to put items made of
wood, silver, aluminium, decorated
porcelain or non heat-resistant plastic into
the dishwasher.
For correct washing, it is essential that
the dishes are positioned suitably in the
baskets without touching each other.
The lower basket is for the dirtiest items:
casserole dishes, bowls and plates.
Start to fill the basket from the outside
(3.2.1). Put the casserole dishes in facing
down, the soup dishes on the left and the
plates on the right.
If you have dropdown supports, you
can use them in their horizontal position
for large items such as casserole dishes
(3.2.2 - 3.2.3).
Put the cutlery in with the handle facing
downwards (3.2.4)
Knives and other sharp utensils should
be placed in the basket with their points
downwards or horizontally.
The top basket is for delicate items: cups,
glasses, porcelain, crystal and standard
size plates (3.2.5). There is an area for
long utensils and dropdown supports that
can be used for wine glasses when put
into vertical position (3.2.6).
For the Express programme or the Top
Load function , all of the dishes should
be placed in the Top Basket (3.2.7).
And for the Bottom Load function, the
dishes will be placed only in the Bottom
Basket (3.2.3).
