Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does not tip over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely. Make sure that the lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the spray arms from rotating. Since plastic dishes and non-stick frying pans usually retain more water drops, their drying will be not so good as that of ceramic or stainless-steel dishes. Lightweight items such as plastic containers should be placed in the upper rack and arranged so that they cannot move. After loading the appliance, make sure that the spray arms can rotate freely. They can be used in a vertical position when arranging dishes or in a horizontal position (lower) to load pans and salad bowls easily. EN Cutlery basket The modular basket can slide to optimise the space inside the lower rack. It is equipped with top grilles for improved cutlery arrangement. Lower rack The lower rack can hold pans, lids, dishes, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Large plates and lids should ideally be placed at the sides. 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 Upper rack Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery such as glasses, cups, saucers and shallow salad bowls. Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower rack because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher washing performance. They can be used in a vertical position when arranging tea/ dessert saucers or in a lower position to load bowls and food containers. * Only available in selected models. 9 EN Tip-up compartments with adjustable position The side tip-up compartments can be positioned at three different heights to optimize the arrangement of the crockery inside the rack. Wine glasses can be placed safely in the tip-up compartments by inserting the stem of each glass into the corresponding slot. To change the inclination, pull up the tip-up compartment, slide it slightly and position it as you wish. The upper rack can be adjusted for height based on requirements: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower rack and low position to make the most of the tip-up compartments/sectors by creating more space upwards. 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 position. The height of the upper rack should be adjusted WHEN THE RACK IS EMPTY. NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only. Cutlery tray* Some dishwasher models are fitted with a sliding tray which can be used to hold serving utensils or small cups. For optimum washing performance avoid positioning bulky crockery directly below the tray. The cutlery tray can be removed (see Figure). If the rack is equipped with a Lift-Up device* (see figure), lift it up by holding its sides. To restore the lower position, press the levers (A) at the sides of the rack and follow the rack down. Unsuitable crockery • Wooden crockery and cutlery. • Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique crockery. [. . . ] If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dishwasher. - Unscrew the end of the water inlet hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running water. - Re-place the filter and screw the water hose back into position. Cleaning the water inlet filter* • Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply and shut off the water tap. • When you return, run a wash cycle when the dishwasher is empty. * Only available in selected models. 13 Troubleshooting EN Whenever the appliance fails to work, check for a solution from the following list before calling for Assistance. Problem: Possible causes / Solutions: The dishwasher does not start • The water supply tap is not turned on. [. . . ]
