Loading Silverware Basket
Load the silverware basket while it is in the dishwasher or take
the basket out for loading on a counter or table.
NOTE:
Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks
to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware.
To open the silverware basket
Unlock the latch.
NOTE:
Be sure the cover is completely latched before pulling out
the bottom rack and before closing the dishwasher door.
■
Place small items such as baby bottle caps, jar lids, corncob
holders, etc., in the section(s) with hinged cover(s). Close the
cover to hold small items in place.
■
Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up
and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested
items.
IMPORTANT:
Always load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.)
pointing down.
■
The silverware basket can be hung on the door or on the
bottom rack (see illustration).
The silverware basket can also be placed inside the bottom
rack.

Grasp the silverware basket by the handle. Slide it toward the
top of the door.
2.
Lift the basket off the holding buttons.
To replace the basket in the door
1.
Set the silverware basket on the holding buttons.
2.
Slide the basket toward the bottom of the door until it locks
into place.
NOTES:
■
Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless
steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each
other during washing.
■
Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices,
etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do
not have a full load to wash immediately.
DISHWASHER USE
Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash section
empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door.
The Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the
dishwasher during the main wash. (See the “Cycle Selection
Charts.”)
■
Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents
can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the
dishwasher and reduce washing performance.
■
Add detergent just before starting cycle.
■
Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh
automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.
NOTE:
Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.
