Loading; Upper Rack - GE GDF500-620 Série Mode D'emploi

Loading

For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware
baskets may vary from your model.

Upper Rack

The upper rack is primarily for glasses, cups, and
saucers. For best wash performance, tilt cup and glass
openings toward the center of the rack. Other items such
as pots, pans, and plates may be placed in the upper
rack. This is also a secure place for dishwasher-safe
plastic items. The upper rack can be used for odd sized
utensils. Sauce pans, mixing bowls, and other similarly
shaped items should be placed face down for best wash
performance. Ensure small plastic items are secure so
that they cannot fall on the heater at the bottom of the
dishwasher, potentially damaging the item.
A loaded upper rack may be
CAUTION
heavier than anticipated. To prevent
minor injury or damage to the contents, do not raise
or lower the upper rack after the rack is loaded.
On some models, the upper rack may be adjusted to
accommodate larger items. To adjust the upper rack, fully
extend the upper rack and remove the two plastic end caps
on the front of the rails. Remove the upper rack. Select
the set of rollers on the side of the rack that provides the
desired height, and reinstall the upper rack by guiding the
rack rails between the appropriate set of rollers. With the
rack reinstalled, replace the two plastic end caps, ensuring
the snap is properly engaged. Failure to properly engage the
end caps may result in the rack falling from the dishwasher.
To add flexibility in loading, the stem safe shelf (on some
models) may be placed in the up or down position or
unfolded and placed in the lower unfolded position.
The shelf may also be used to secure stemware such as
wine glasses. Because these stemware items come in
various sizes, slowly push the rack in to ensure the items
do not bump into the edges of the dishwasher, which
may cause damage to the items.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that items do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack or silverware basket where they
will block the rotation of the middle spray arm. This
could result in noise during operation and/or poor wash
performance.
