General Warnings and Recommendations
Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following
recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading.
Before loading the dishes into the baskets it is necessary to:
Remove coarse food remains, e.g. bones, which may clog the filter or damage the wash
pump.
Soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on the bottom then load them into
the basket.
There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running water before loading them into the
basket.
WARNINGS:
Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot tip over or obstruct
the rotation of the spray arms during the washing cycle.
Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be loaded with the
opening facing downwards and with any cavities at an angle, to allow the water to drain
out.
Do not stack dishes.
Do not place glasses too close together because they may knock against each other and
break.
Load large items which are most difficult to clean into the lower basket.
Make sure that the items being washed are dishwasher-safe.
Items which are not dishwasher-safe:
Wooden dishes, pots or pans
Handcrafted items
Plastic dishes (except when marked dishwasher-safe)
Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass
Aluminium dishes
Silverware
Glass and crystal
Decorated items
Loading the Baskets
Loading the upper and lower baskets
The upper basket is designed to hold delicate and light items such as glasses, cups, saucers,
serving bowls and shallow pans.
The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.
Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring
that the upper spray arm can turn freely.
