ISHWASHER 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 upper racklower rackFirst 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, mak- ing them more suitable to meet your specific needs. What goes into thelower 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 may be splitinto two parts by pulling out thehandle.When you only have little cutleryto wash, you can use just half thebasket; save space for othercrockery or place the other half ofthe basket in the upper rack instead(see figures A and B).This basket is equipped with tworemovable grids: insert the cutleryone by one into the slots; knivesand utensils with sharp blades ortips should be positioned with thesharp parts at the bottom.Position all cutlery items so thatthey don't touch. Load examplesIt is best if you place longerutensils horizontally at the frontof the upper rack.What goes into theupper 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 shal- low 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 compart- ments onto which you can place mugs and cups, as well as long sharp knives and serving cutlery. After loading the dishes, remem- ber to check that the blades on the sprayer arms can turn freely with- out hitting against any dishes. How to adjust the toprack. The upper rack can be set in high or low position to enable you to organise your dishes effortlessly. Open the rail stop flaps and pull therack out completely. Now place it inhigh or low position, then slide it alongthe guide rails until the front wheelsalso go in. Now close the rail stop flaps.Follow the sequence of actionsillustrated in figure "F".
