Loading the racks
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.

Upper rack
Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery: glasses,
tea and coffee cups, saucers, small salad bowls, 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 offer the Baby cycle, the upper rack must be
placed in its lower position when the appliance is being loaded).
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
handles
* (see figure), pull out the upper
rack until it reaches its stop point, grip the
handles at the sides of the rack and move it
upwards or downwards, then slowly let it fall
back into place.
