PREPARING AND LOADING DISHES
Loading the Bottom Rack
Features and appearance of racks and
silverware basket as shown may vary
from your model.
The lower rack is best for plates, saucers,
bowls, and cookware. Large items should be
placed along the edge so they do not block
the spray arm rotation. For best results, place
bowls, casseroles, and sauce pans with soiled
surface facing down or toward the center. Tilt
slightly for better drainage.
Make sure tall items do not block spray arm
rotation.
Be sure pan handles do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack and block the spray
arm rotation.

Loading the Silverware Basket
CAUTION
Load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.)
pointing down.
Failure to do so may result in injury.
Features and appearance of racks and
silverware basket as shown may vary
from your model.
Load the silverware basket while it is in the
bottom rack or take the basket out for loading
on a counter or table.
For baskets with lids small items like baby
bottle caps, jar lids, corn cob holders, etc.,
can be placed in a covered section. Close the
cover to hold small items in place.
Use suggested loading patterns, as shown, to
increase washability of the silverware.
Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom of
basket or rack to block the spray arm.
Do not mix silver and stainless to avoid
damaging the silver fi nish.
When covers are up, mix items in each
section of the basket with some pointing
up and some down to avoid nesting. Water
spray cannot reach nested items.
