Loading the racks
*Only available in selected models.
** The number and position may vary.
Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from
the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.
After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms
can rotate freely.
Lower rack
The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls,
cutlery, etc. as seen in the Loading examples.
Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the
rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper
sprayer arm.
Some
dishwasher
models are
fitted with tip-up
sections
*, which
can be used in
a vertical position when arranging plates or in a horizontal
position when arranging pans and salad bowls.
Cutlery basket
The type of cutlery basket may vary according to the
dishwasher model: it may be modular, non-modular or a sliding
version. The non-modular basket must only be positioned at
the front of the lower rack.
The modular basket may be separated into two parts, a solution
which is recommended when performing a half load wash (only
in models offering this option), is available in a sliding version
(positioned at any point on the lower rack by sliding it between
the fixed or tip-up inserts.
- Both versions
are fitted with
a collapsible
sliding system
which means
the cutlery can
be arranged in the best possible way.
Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be
placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing
downwards, or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-
up compartments on the upper rack.

saucepans and small saucepans which are not too soiled,
using the Loading examples as a guide.
 Mugs and cups, long sharp knives and serving utensils:
place these on the tip-up compartments

Tip-up compartments with adjustable tilt*
- The tilt feature can be used to increase the space in the upper
rack, to position wine glasses with different stem lengths safely
and to improve drying performance.
- Lift the tip-up compartment, slide it gently and position it in the
desired tilt angle.
Adjusting the height of the upper rack
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper
rack may be moved to a higher or lower level. (in models
which
The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted
WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.
Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.
Open the left and right guide rail
stops and pull out the rack; position it
higher or lower as required, slide it
along the guide rails until the front
wheels are in place and close the
stops (see figure).
If the rack is fitted with Dual Space

upper rack until it reaches its stop

the rack and move it upwards or
