							Loading the machine
Removing excess soils
Scrape food from dishes before
placing them in the dishwasher.
Inadequate pre-cleaning can clog
the filters and interrupt the wash
program.
Do not use steel wool sponges.
Danger of corrosion! Only use a
non-abrasive stainless steel
sponge, soft nylon brush, plastic
sponge or the similar.Important
–Select baskets and inserts which are
appropriate for the application.
–Load items so that water can reach
all surfaces.
–Do not place dishes or cutlery inside
other pieces.
–Hollow items such as cups, glasses,
pots, etc. should be upside down in
the respective inserts. Hollow vessels
should be inverted and placed in the
correct inserts.
– Concave based items such as mugs
or bowls, should be placed at an
angle so that water does not pool.
– To ensure good water coverage, tall,
narrow and hollow items should be
placed in the center of the baskets
rather than in the corners. Do not
obscure them with larger items below.
– The spray arms must not be blocked
by items that are too tall or hang
through the baskets. Check
clearance by manually rotating the
spray arms.
–
Cutlery can be placed in any order in
the cutlery holders. However for the
best cleaning and drying results,
place the cutlery in the inserts with
the handles down.
Be careful when sorting items
with sharp pointed ends. Position
them in the machine so that you do
not hurt yourself or create a danger
for others. Sharp knives, forks, etc.
should be placed in baskets with the
pointed ends facing downwards.
