Recommendations for loading the dishwasher
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 can not tip over.
• All utensils are placed in the 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.

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 are to be placed 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 order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
The maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the detergent dispenser is of 19 cm, this not to hamper the opening of it.

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.

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 refer to standard loading option of PART I : Generic Version

Function Of The Rinse Aid And Detergent

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 would 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 color 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 detergent
The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

WARNING

• Proper Use of Detergent
  Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers 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

1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the “open” (left) arrow and lift it out.

2. Carefully pour in the rinse-aid into its dispenser, whilst avoiding it to overflow.

3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with “open” arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

Adjusting the rinse aid reservoir

Turn the rinse aid indicator dial to a number between 1 and 6.
The higher the number, the more rinse aid the dishwasher uses.
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 glassware or knife blades.

Filling The Detergent Dispenser

1. Press the release catch on the detergent dispenser to open the cover.

2. Add detergent into the larger cavity (A) for the main wash cycle .
   For more heavily soiled wash loads, also add some detergent into the smaller cavity (B) for the pre-wash cycle.

3. Close the cover and press on it until it locks into place.
