LOADING DISHES
Using the upper basket
■ The upper basket is provided with
mobile racks hooked to the sides of the
basket which can be regulated in two
positions: upright and lowered. In the
lowered position the racks may be used
for tea and coffee cups, kitchen knives
and ladles. Glasses with stems may be
safely hung on the ends of the racks.
Glasses, cups, saucers and dessert
plates may be loaded under the racks.
■ Soup plates and ordinary plates may be
loaded with the rack in the upright
position. Plates should be loaded
vertically with the underside of the plate
towards the back of the dishwasher with
a space between each plate to allow
water to pass freely.
■ It is advisable to load plates of the same
size together in order to utilize maximum
basket capacity.
■ Plates may be loaded in a single row
(fig. 1) or on both rows (fig. 2).
■ It is advisable to load large plates
(approx. 27 or more cm) slightly tilted
towards the rear to facilitate introduction
of the basket into the machine.
■ Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also
be loaded on the upper basket. It is
advisable to block these in place so that
the jets of water do not make them
overturn.
■ The upper basket has been designed to
offer maximum flexibility in use and can
be loaded with up to 24 plates on two
rows, up to 30 glasses on five rows or a
mixed load.
A standard daily load is represented in
figs. 1 and 2.

■ The lower basket is fitted with a special
adjustable central rack (fig. 3 and 4).
This permits stable and optimum
loading, even when the size and/or
shape of the dishes is non-standard.
- POSITION “A”: for a standard load, or
one that excludes pans, salad bowls and
the like.
- POSITION “B”: for dishes which,
although standard size, have a particular
shape (very deep bowls, square dishes
or ones without borders etc.).
- POSITION “C”: for larger than average
flat plates and/or ones with non-
standard shapes (square, hexagonal,
oval, pizza dishes etc.).
■ The small plates, as those used for
desserts for example, must be placed in
the lower basket as shown in the figure 5,
with the support flap placed outwards ("B").
For normal or large plates the flap must
be in the position ("A").
WARNING!
If the small plates are placed in the
basket with the support flap in the
incorrect position, the plates will
interfere with the lower spraying arm
preventing it to rotate.
A standard daily load is represented in
fig. 6.

extraction of the basket is necessary.
