Loading
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets
may vary from your model.
Lower Rack
The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers and
cookware items. Large items, such as broiler pans and
baking racks should be placed along the sides of the rack.
If necessary, oversized glasses and mugs can be placed in
the lower rack to maximize loading flexibility. Plates, saucers
and similar items should be placed between the tines in the
direction that allows the item to remain secure in the rack.
NOTE:
Do not load large items in the lower rack where they may
block the wash jets from rinsing out the detergent dispenser.
The lower rack fold down tines (on some models) can be
adjusted to different upright angles or placed flat to provide
flexibility for hard-to-fit or extra-large items.

The clips can be a choke hazard
WARNING
for small children if removed from
the dishwasher. Keep out of reach of children.
To change the direction of the fold down tines, lower
the tines, then pull away from the bar clips that secure
the tines to the rack and remove. Reverse the direction
of the tines, orienting the handle on the opposite side of
the rack. Reattach the tines to the bar clips by pushing
the tines back until they click in place. The indexer will
also need to be switched to the opposite side of the
dishwasher. To remove the indexer, simply slide it the
in the direction labeled "unlock." Then, align the indexer
with the rack on the other side and slide in the direction
that says "lock" in order to reattach the indexer to the
rack.
IMPORTANT: It is important to ensure that items do not
protrude through the bottom of the rack or the silverware
basket where they will block the rotation of the lower
spray arm. Also, ensure that large plates, pots, or tall
items don't hit the mid spray arm. This could result in
noise during operation and/or poor wash performance.
