Refined Salt and Rinse Aid Only use products which have been specifically designed for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt. Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

Loading the racks GB Tips Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and containers. No preventive rinsing is needed under running water. Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely.
Tip-up compartments with adjustable position The side tip-up compartments can be positioned at three different heights to optimize the arrangement of crockery inside the rack. Wine glasses can be placed safely in the tip-up compartments by inserting the stem of each glass into the corresponding slots. For optimum drying results incline the tip-up compartments more. To change the inclination, pull up the tip-up compartment, slide it slightly and position it as you wish.
