Loading the dishwasher
45
Upper basket
See “Loading examples” under “Load-
ing the dishwasher” for examples of
how to load dishware and utensils.
Loading the upper basket
Risk of damage due to water
leakage.
If you run the dishwasher without the
upper basket, water can leak out of
the dishwasher.
Only run the dishwasher with the up-
per basket in place (except during
the
Tall items
program, if available).
Use the upper basket for small, light-
weight, and delicate items such as
cups, saucers, glasses, dessert
bowls, etc.
Shallow pans or casserole dishes can
also be placed in the upper basket.
Long items such as soup ladles and
mixing spoons should be placed lying
down across the front of the upper
basket.
Loading the FlexCare cup rack
You can put cups, small bowls, and flat
dishes on the FlexCare cup rack.
Glasses can be arranged along the cup
rack so they sit securely during the pro-
gram.
The silicone elements in the cup rack
are specially designed to hold tall
glasses with long stems securely.
Lower the cup rack to do so.
Raise the cup rack upward to make
room for tall items.
