Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. UI53 Removable knife basket Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be placed horizontally in the removable knife basket, which is positioned at the rear of the upper basket. Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards. If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together. UI04 UI71 32 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.

If other options have been selected the corresponding indicator lights will turn off, but this will not modify the settings made previously. Press the button again to select the number of hours by which you wish to delay the programme start (up to a maximum of 12 hours). To set the time setting to zero press the DELAY push button until "h 0" appears in the digital display. Close the door, an audible signal will confirm the starting of the countdown.

The opening of the door will not stop the countdown. 9.
