Preparing and Loading Dishes
Consider buying utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.
For particular items, select a program with the lowest possible temperature.
To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher
immediately after the program has ended.
Cutlery with wooden, china or mother-of-pearl handles
Plastic items that are not heat resistant
Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant
Bonded cutlery items or dishes
Pewter or copper items
Crystal glass
Steel items subject to rusting
Wooden platters
Items made from synthetic fibres

Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently
For washing the following cutlery/dishes
Are not suitable:
6
7
Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. Soften remnants of burnt food in
pans. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.
For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines.
(Features and appearance of baskets and cutlery baskets may vary from
your model).
Place objects in the dishwasher in following way:
Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are faced downwards.
Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can
run off.
All utensils are stacked securely and cannot tip over.
All utensils are placed in a way that the spray arms can rotate freely during
washing.
Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing
downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
To avoid damage, glasses should not touch one another.
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such
as glasses, coffee and tea cups.
Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard!
Long and / or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned
horizontally in the upper basket.
Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and
for reasonable consumption of energy.
NOTE:
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily
fall out of the basket.
Removing the dishes
To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we
recommend that you empty the lower basket first, followed by the upper basket.
WARNING
Items will be hot! To prevent damage, do not take glass and
cutlery out of the dishwasher for around 15 minutes after the
program has ended.
Recommendations for loading the dishwasher

WARNING
Do not let any item extend through
the bottom.
Always load sharp utensils with
the sharp point down!
For the best washing effect, please load the baskets referring to the standard
loading options on the last section of Part 1: Generic Version

Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and
lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups
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 will not get moved by
the spray of water.
Loading the lower basket
We suggest that you place large items and the most
difficult to clean items into the lower basket: such as
pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown
in the figure below. It is preferable to place serving
dishes and lids on the side of the racks in orderto
avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.The
maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the
detergent dispenser is 19 cm, so as not to hamper
it opening.
Loading the cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery rack separately from each other in the
appropriate positions, and do make sure the utensils do not nest together,
this may cause bad performance.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets
on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing
water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.
WARNING
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid
dispenser with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent,
liquid detergent). This will damage the appliance.
When to refill the rinse aid dispenser
Unless the rinse-aid warning light ( ) on the control panel is on, you can
always estimate the amount from the colour of the optical level indicator located
next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the indicator will be fully dark.
The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse-aid diminishes. You should never let
the rinse aid level be less than 1/4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator
changes, as illustrated below.
Full 3/4 full 1/2 full 1/4 full Empty
Function Of The Rinse Aid And Detergent
Function of detergent
The chemical ingredients in the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and
dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents
available are suitable for this purpose.
WARNING
Proper Use of Detergent:
Use only detergent specifically made for dishwasher use. Keep your
detergent fresh and dry.
Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash
dishes.
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep dishwasher
detergent out of the reach of children.

Filling The Rinse Aid Reservoir
Adjusting the rinse aid reservoir
The rinse aid reservoir has six settings. Both the
recommended setting and the factory setting is “4”. If the
dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the
dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-
free. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your
dishes or a bluish film on the glassware or knife blades.
