UI85 UI18 16 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. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. 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 downwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent the from sticking together. Silver cutlery tends to go black if mixed with steel cutlery. Place it in the cutlery basket separate from the others. For best results we recommend to use the cutlery grids provided (if the size and the dimensions of the cutlery allow it). To make the removal of cutlery easier it is possible to open the cutlery basket. To ensure that the cutlery basket cannot open when removed from the appliance always hold both parts of the two part handle. Crockery and cutlery 30 g / ** QUICK 50° Light soil.
