Preparing & Loading Dishes

DISH PREPARATION

Scrape away large pieces of food, bone, pits,
toothpicks, etc. The wash system will remove
remaining food particles. Gently scrape away
burned-on food with a non-scratch utensil or let
dish soak before washing (see Figure 1). Empty
liquids from glasses and cups.
Foods containing vegetable oil and/or chemical
additives such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,
lemon juice or tomato-based products may cause
discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if
allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless the
dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best to
rinse off these food soils.
• Load racks so that large items do not
prevent the detergent dispenser from
opening.
• Check manufacturer's recommendations
before washing items in question.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food disposal,
be sure disposal is completely empty
before starting dishwasher.

LOADING THE TOP RACK

(For best washing performance, the upper rack
should be in the raised position.)
The top rack is designed for flexibility in loading a
wide variety of items including cups, glasses,
stemware, small plates, bowls, etc.
• Load glasses in top rack. Damage may occur
if placed in bottom rack unless Stemware
Cycle is selected.
• Damage may occur if delicate items touch
each other during dishwasher operation.
• Long-handled knives and utensils can be
placed in the top rack's versa tray.
• Be sure nothing protrudes through the bottom
of the rack to block rotation of middle spray
arm.
• Load items with open ends facing down for
better cleaning and draining.

Some models have a fold-down cup shelf or a cup
shelf/stemware holder. They can be used to load
two levels of cups, juice glasses, and other short
items. Stagger items on upper level so that water
can reach all inside surfaces. Fold up to load tall
glasses.
