Preparing and Loading Dishes

Dish Preparation

Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits,
toothpicks, etc. The continuous filtered wash
system will remove remaining food particles.
Burned-on foods should be loosened before
loading. Empty liquids from glasses and cups.

Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,
lemon juice and tomato based products may
cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics
if allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless
the dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best
to rinse off these food soils.

Load racks so that large items do not
prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.

Check manufacturer's recommendations
before washing items in question.

If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer,

be sure disposer is completely empty
before starting dishwasher.

Do not cover funnel

Loading the Top Rack

Features and appearance of racks and silverware
basket may vary from your model.

Important: Do not cover the funnel when
loading.

The upper rack is designed for flexibility in loading
a wide variety of items including cups, glasses,
stemware, small plates, bowls, etc.

Load glasses in top rack. Damage may occur if
placed in bottom rack.

Load plastic items in top rack only. Melting may
occur if placed in bottom rack.

Load items with open ends facing down for better
cleaning and draining.

Damage may occur if delicate items touch each
other during dishwasher operation.

Long-handled knives and utensils can be placed in
top rack.

Be sure nothing protrudes through the bottom of
the rack to block rotation of middle spray arm.
