UPPER BASKET
●
The upper basket is designed to hold items like glasses, cups, saucers,
plates, small bowls and shallow pans.
●
Place larger utensils on or under the foldaway cup racks in the upper
basket. Ensure that knife blades are facing down and that light weight
items are weighted down or placed on the cupracks.
Fixed tine plate rack
●
Use the fixed tine plate rack to support saucers, small plates
and bowls.
●
The tine spacing has been optimized for maximum wash performance of
plates and bowls.
●
The fixed tine plate rack is not removable.

●
Use the lower basket for your
largest dishes: pots, pans, lids,
serving dishes and bowls.
●
Ensure dishware items do not
block the spray arm above
from rotating.
●
Place larger plates between
the longer tines to maximise
stability.
●
If you need more height for
tall items, you can raise the
upper basket.
See instructions opposite.
LOWER BASKET
Folding tine rack
●
These tines can be folded down if you need the space for pots or other large items.
●
Release by pushing the small clips at the rear and fold the tine sections down towards
each other.

Adjustable Foldaway Cup Racks
●
Use the cup racks to support mugs, cups and
glassware, and to secure large utensils and knives.
●
Adjust the height to suit the items stored on or
below the racks.
●
Fold the racks away if you need to make space for
taller items.
You can adjust these independently of each other to
any height:
1 Fold up to unlock the rack.
2 Adjust the height to suit by sliding up or down.
3 Fold down to lock in position.
●
Fold the racks away if you need the space.
Stemware notches
These notches help
support long-stemmed
glassware.
1 Fold up to
unlock the rack
Adjusting the height of the Upper Basket
●
Adjust the height of the upper basket to create more space for tall
items in the lower basket.
●
You can adjust the height even when it is fully loaded, as you do not
have to remove it from the dishwasher.
●
If you are removing the basket fully, make sure that the runners are
aligned at the same height on both sides before re-inserting.
To lower the basket
●
Pull the lever up on one side and, without releasing it, carefully let the
basket drop down.
●
Use the other hand to support the opposite side of the basket, so that
it doesn’t drop suddenly and damage loaded dishes.
●
Repeat for the other side.
To lift the basket
●
Hold it on one side and carefully pull upwards until it clicks into place.
Repeat for the other side.
●
Note: you do not need to lift the levers up when raising the height of
the basket back up.
Removable anti-nesting grid
●
The anti-nesting grid clips onto the top
of the cutlery basket.
●
Use the grid to separate cutlery items
and stop them nesting together.
Removable anti-nesting grid
CUTLERY BASKET
Loading
●
To reduce the risk of injury, we
recommend loading knives and sharp
utensils with handles facing up.
●
Mix spoons, knives and forks within
each section to stop cutlery nesting
together and to ensure the water
circulates freely. Alternatively, use
the clip-on anti-nesting grids to keep
cutlery items apart.
●
Keep stainless steel from touching
silver cutlery to avoid staining.
Removable small items container
●
Small, light items like baby bottle teats
are best placed into the small items
container to prevent them from being
displaced during the wash.
●
You can extend your cutlery basket by
clipping the container on its side.
●
To optimise the cutlery space within
the basket, the small items container
can be placed elsewhere in the basket.
If laid flat, make sure the solid plastic
side is facing up.
●
If you place a fully laden small items
container under the cup racks, it is best
to leave the rack space directly above
the container empty: there may not be
enough water reaching items that are
placed there.
