Height Adjustable Upper Rack

The height of the upper rack can be adjusted when you load glasses with long stems or tall crockery items.

There are three available positions for adjusting the height of the upper rack to create more space.

Lowering the Rack

Hold the rack at the centre of each side to support its weight. Then, push the button on each side to release the rack and lower it to the lower position.

Raising the Rack

Lift the rack at the centre of each side until the rack locks into place in the upper position. It is not necessary to lift the lock levers to raise the rack.

Warning
  • Before adjusting, ensure the rack is empty of all dishes. Otherwise dishes may get damaged or you may get injured.

Note
  • Raise the upper rack without pushing the buttons on each side. Pushing the buttons when raising the rack will prevent the rack from locking into position.

  • To set the rack to the middle position, it may be easier to lower the rack all the way down and then raise each side of the rack individually until it clicks into place.

  • There is a 56 mm gain in height when the upper rack is moved to the lower position.

  • After adjusting the rack levels, check that the spray arms are free to rotate.

  • With the lower position of the upper rack, check if the bottom part of upper rack including spray arm is not disturbing items on the lower rack.

  • When the upper rack is in the lower position, push in the upper rack first, and the lower rack later.

  • Pull out the lower rack first, and the upper rack later.

  • When the upper rack is in the lower position, the possible height of dishes differs with models where the cutlery rack is fitted.
