Manual

Loading the racks

*Only available in selected models.

** The number and position may vary.

Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from

the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.

After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms

can rotate freely.

Lower rack

The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls,

cutlery, etc. as seen in the Loading examples.

Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the

rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper

sprayer arm.

Some dishwasher

models are fitted

with tip-up

sections

*, which

can be used in a

vertical position

when arranging plates or in a horizontal position when

arranging pans and salad bowls.

Cutlery basket

The type of cutlery basket may vary according to the

dishwasher model: it may be modular, non-modular or a sliding

version. The non-modular basket must only be positioned at

the front of the lower rack.

The modular basket may be separated into two parts, a solution

which is recommended when performing a half load wash (only

in models offering this option), is available in a sliding version

(positioned at any point on the lower rack by sliding it between

the fixed or tip-up inserts.

- Both versions are fitted

with a collapsible sliding

system which means

the cutlery can be

arranged in the best

possible way.

Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be

placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing

downwards, or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-

up compartments on the upper rack.

rack, to position wine glasses with different stem lengths safely

and to improve drying performance.

- Lift the tip-up compartment, slide it gently and position it in the

desired tilt angle.

Adjusting the height of the upper rack

In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper

rack may be moved to a higher or lower level. (in models which

The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted

WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY.

Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.

Open the left and right guide rail stops

lower as required, slide it along the guide

rails until the front wheels are in place

and close the stops (see figure).

After my dishwasher has finished it's cycle, the container that holds the tablet hasn't opened. How is this possible? Verified

The dishwasher does not heat the water anymore, why is that? Verified

It is likely that the heating element is defective. Have it replaced. When in doubt, contact the manufacturer.

Do I need to rinse my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Verified

Rinsing the dishes is not necessary, but you do need to remove any large, hard and fat leftovers. These could clog the drain over time.

Can I open the dishwasher while it is running? Verified

Most dishwashers are equipped with a water stop, making the program stop immediately when the door is opened and meaning no water will come out. With some models this can cause problems over time. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

Should I open the dishwasher after it finished running to have the dishes dry quicker? Verified

This depends on the type of dishwasher and the location of the dishwasher. Some dishwashers are equipped with a feature that dries the dishes after the washing program. In that case opening the dishwasher will have no added value. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

After the dishwaser has finished its cycle, the plastic dishes are still wet but the rest isn't. Why is that? Verified

Plastic is a bad conductor of heat, allowing the products to cool down quickly. The moisture that remains on it then evaporates far less than for example on ceramics or metal.

Can I connect a dishwasher to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dishwasher, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dishwasher is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord cn handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

Can I put wooden objects such as spatulas and cutting boards in the dishwasher? Verified

No. Wooden objects can get damaged or warped in a dishwasher. Also, the wood fibres that come free might damage the dishwasher. Wooden cutting boards are often made with glue that can come loose after being in the dishwasher several times.

Can I put pans with Teflon in the dishwasher? Verified

Yes, you can. However, the pan will wear faster than when it is cleaned by hand. When cleaning a pan with Teflon by hand, never use a scourer but use a soft sponge or cloth.
