When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:

spray arms .

- Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the

opening 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 to glasses, they must not touch.

- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
