Preparing and Loading Dishes

 

(continued)

Loading the Silverware
Basket

Mix spoons, forks and knives to prevent
nesting. Mixing items gives better cleaning
and drying.

For safety, load sharp knives and forks with
handles up.

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 finish.

Loading the Bottom Rack

Make sure tall items do not block spray arm
rotation.

Place plates and platters so that they do not
touch.

Place bowls, casseroles and sauce pans with
the soiled surface facing down or toward the
center. Tilt slightly for better drainage.

Be sure pan handles do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack and block the spray arm
rotation.

Adding a Dish

To add or remove items after wash cycle
starts:

• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until

wash action stops before opening.

• Add the item and wait a few seconds to

allow cold air to slowly expand inside
dishwasher.

• Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.

Utility Basket

(available select models)

The utility basket has two dividers that can be
opened to hold longer items or closed for small
items like measuring spoons, bottle stoppers,
etc. The covers on each end can be folded
down out of the way or closed to keep small
items inside.
