Service dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely. The cutlery basket 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.

The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the cup racks.
electrolux The dimensions of the cutlery depend on the position of the upper basket. Refer to the following table. Cutlery dimensions for mini cutlery basket Upper basket in higher position maximum 15 cm Upper basket in lower position maximum 20 cm Soft spikes Soft spikes impede glassware to move during the washing cycle or when the upper basket is moved. Caution! BEFORE CLOSING THE DOOR, MAKE SURE THAT THE SPRAY ARMS CAN ROTATE FREELY.

Never lift or lower the basket on one side only When the basket is in the higher position cups cannot be placed on the cup racks.

electrolux 23 Attention! NOT all dishwasher models of have inlet and drain hoses provided with a locknut. In this case, this facility is not available. If the appliance is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose.

If the spigot of your sink has a "no return valve" incorporated this can prevent the correct draining of your dishwasher. We therefore advise you to remove it. To avoid water leakage after installation make sure that the water couplings are tight. Electrical connection Warning! Safety standards require the appliance to be earthed.
