Getting Started Getting Started Loading the Dishwasher • Your dishwasher holds a maximum of 12 place settings. • Place all containers such as cups, glasses, and pots into the dishwasher with the opening facing downwards (so that no water can collect). • Small and light items can go into the upper rack. • Long and narrow items are placed in the middle of the racks. • Place all large and very dirty items in the lower rack. • Dishes and cutlery should not be placed above each other. • Glasses should not touch each other. • The movement of the spray arms must not be hindered. • DO NOT overload your dishwasher and pay attention to manufacturer instructions regarding dishes which are appropriate for use in a dishwasher. Only with suitable dishes (mentioned in next section) will you obtain optimal washing results with a sensible use of energy. Upper Rack Load the upper rack with dessert plates, cups, glasses, etc. Rack Adjustments Variable Height Setting The upper rack is equipped with a lifting mechanism which enables you to change the height of the rack even if it is fully loaded, and without having to remove it from the dishwasher. Lift Upper Rack • To lift the upper rack to a higher position, hold it on one side and carefully pull it upwards A. • To lift the opposite side of the rack, hold it and pull it upwards in the same manner. Lower Upper Rack • To lower the upper rack, hold and press in the rack lever on one side and carefully lower the rack without releasing the lever B. • Repeat the procedure with the lever on the opposite side of the rack.
