■
Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and
draining.
■
Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not
designed for glasses. Damage can occur.
■
Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing
them over the tines can lead to breakage.
■
China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each
other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.
■
Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items
marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended.
■
Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move
them during the cycle.
■
To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
■
Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the
top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.
Adjustable 3-position top rack
You can raise or lower the top rack to fit tall items in either the top
or bottom rack. Two adjusters are located on each side of the top
rack. Each adjuster has 3 preset positions. The high and low
positions are marked on the adjuster.
To adjust the top rack
1. Hold the top rack with one hand near the adjuster.
2. With the other hand, pull out the top of the adjuster.
3. Raise or lower the rack to one of the preset positions.
4. Release the adjuster.
Repeat the steps for the remaining adjusters as needed. The
4 adjusters can be raised or lowered separately or together. The
top rack does not have to be level.
Loading Bottom Rack
The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and
utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded
with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See
recommended loading patterns shown.)
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
Do not cover spray tower. See arrow.
■
Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the bottom
rack. Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are
secured in place.
■
Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines and facing
inward to the spray.
■
Overlap the edges of plates for large loads.
■
Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety
of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls
securely between the rows of tines. Do not nest bowls
because the spray will not reach all surfaces.
■
Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the
sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the
water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser and
silverware basket.
■
Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.
■
Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation
of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely.
■
Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of
the dishwasher tub. You can block the water inlet opening.
NOTE: If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or
cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front.
