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.
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. Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high
temperatures.
•	 Copper	and	tin	crockery.
•	 Crockery	soiled	with	ash,	wax,	lubricating	grease	or	ink.
The	colours	of	glass	decorations	and	aluminium/silver	pieces	can	
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of 
glass	(e.g.	crystal	objects)	can	become	opaque	after	a	number	
of wash cycles too. 
Damage to glass and crockery
Caused by:
•	 Type	of	glass	and	glass	production	process.
•	 Chemical	composition	of	detergent.
•	 Water	temperature	of	rinse	cycle.
Tips:
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the
manufacturer as dishwasher safe.
•	 Use	a	delicate	detergent	suitable	for	crockery.
•	 Collect	glasses	and	cutlery	from	the	dishwasher	as	soon	as		
the wash cycle is over.
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.
Tip-up compartments with adjustable position
The side tip-up compartments can be positioned at three 
different	heights	to	optimize	the	arrangement	of	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 slots.
Before loading the tray, 
make sure the supports are 
properly coupled to the up-
per rack 
(see Figure).
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).
