Loading the Upper Rack
Th e upper ra ck is de s igned to ho ld mo re d elicate a nd lighter dis hwa re s uch as g lass es, coffee
and tea cup and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are
not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water.
Upper wheels
Lower wheels
Adjusting the Upper Basket
The height of the upper basket can be adjusted in order to create more space for large utensils
both for the upper/lower basket. The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by placing the
wheels on different height of the rails. Long items, serving cutlery, salad servers and knives
should be placed on the shelf so that they do not o bstruct the rotation of the spray arms.
The shelf can be fold ed back or be removed when not required for use.
 
						

							Loading the Lower Basket
We recommend that you place large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower basket:
pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking
therotationofthe topsprayarm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed top down.
Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.
The bottom basket feature fold down tine rows so that larger or more pots and pans can be lo aded .

							The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pum.
The residues may block the filter, in this case they must be removed.
The filter system consists of a coarse filter,a flat (Main filter)
A nd a microfilt er(Fine filter ).
Food and soil particles trapped in this filter are pulverized by a
specia l jet on the lower spray arm and washed down to drain.
La rge r ite ms, such as p iece s o f bon es o r gla ss, that c ou ld b lock

Th e water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house hold hot water
line (such as, central system, heating system),as long as it does not exceed a
temperature of 60 C. In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortene d by about 15
minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
Th e co nnection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as
described in the section for the connection to the cold water line.
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter o f 4 cm, o r let it run into the sink, making sure to
avoid bending or crimping. Use the special plastic support that comes with the appliance. The free end of the hose
must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
