LOADING THE SILVERWARE
NOTE: The silverware basket tops can be folded up to
accommodate large or oddly-shaped items.
With the silverware basket tops down, insert blades
or handles of utensils through the basket top openings
according to the patterns suggested below.
Place knives and sharp utensils with their handles up, and
forks and spoons with their handles down. If large or
oddly-shaped items are to be loaded into the silverware
basket with the tops up, load the items so that they do not
nest together.
Use suggested loading pattern for best results.
WARNING
The sharp points and edges of knives and other sharp
utensils can cause serious injuries. Load knives and other
sharp utensils with edges down. Do not allow children to
handle or play near knives and sharp utensils.
