Loading the Silverware Basket
Use suggested loading plan for best results.
NOTE: The silverware basket tops can be folded up to
accommodate large or oddly-shaped items.
With the silverware basket tops down, load the silverware
basket following 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.
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.
The Flexible Silverware Basket
(select models)
This basket splits along its length, resulting in two halves
that may be placed in a variety of positions in the lower
rack, greatly increasing the lower rack’s loading versatility.
The basket snaps together either back to back or end to
end.
To split the Flexible Silverware Basket:
Grasp the basket and slide the two halves in opposite
•
directions, as shown.
Pull the two halves apart.
