The lower rack is best used
plates, saucers, and cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and racks should go
in the lower rack along the edge. Load platters, pots and bowls along the sides, in corners, or in the back. The
down fingers may be used to accommodate hard-to-fit items. For best washing results, all items should be positioned
with soiled side facing the center of the rack.
Put flatware in the removable basket with handles up to
protect your hands. Mix knives,
and spoons so
they don’t nest together. Distribute evenly.
For best washing results be sure not to load large plates
and cookware between silverware basket and the
center of the rack.
To increase the flexibility of the lower rack, the
flexible silverware basket may be split. Grasp the
silverware basket at opposite
and slide apart.
The silverware basket sections should be placed in
the lower rack by hanging them on the top hoop.
Don’t place the silverware basket in the front right
corner-because the detergent could pour into it and
damage silverware.
