GETTING STARTED
LOADING THE THIRD RACK
The Third Rack can be used to load cutlery or other accessories
such as spatulas or cooking spoons. Silverware, knives and
utensils should be loaded in the third rack separate from each
other in the appropriate positions so they do not nest together.
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. DO NOT WASH
ALUMINUM COOKWARE IN YOUR DISHWASHER.
LOADING THE SILVERWARE BASKET
The silverware basket consists of three separate sections. For
optimum loading flexibility, the center section of the basket
can be used individually, joined with one or both side sections
or removed.
• Lift handle to remove the silverware basket and set the basket
on a counter or table top.
• Lift up on each side section to disengage the center section
from the keyhole slots in the side sections.
• Either load silverware into the basket sections while they are
in the Lower Rack, or while they are sitting on a countertop
before replacing into the Lower Rack.

• Do not let any item extend through bottom.
• Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom of the
silverware basket or rack that could block the lower
spray arm.
• Always load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.)
pointing down.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
• To avoid injury, load utensils such as knives and skewers with
handles pointing up and sharp metal edges pointing down.
Items such as forks and spoons may be loaded with handles
pointing up or down, using separators to prevent the edges
of the silverware from nesting.
• Place small items such as baby bottle caps, jar lids, corncob
holders, etc. in the basket sections with hinged covers. Close
the covers to hold small items in place.
• Unload or remove the baskets before unloading the racks to
avoid water drops from falling on the silverware.
• When handles are up, mix items in
each section of the baskets with some
pointing up and some down to avoid
nesting. Spray cannot reach nested
items.
ADDING A DISH
To add or remove items after wash cycle starts:
1
Open door slightly and wait a few seconds until wash action
stops before completely opening.
2
Add the item.
3
Press the START/CANCEL pad, then close the door latch
firmly within 4 seconds, the cycle will automatically resume.
If the door is not closed within 4 seconds after pressing
START/CANCEL, the cycle will time out and not start.
CAUTION
TO AVOID BURN INJURY: Slightly open door
and wait until spray arms and wash action stop. Hot steam
may exit the dishwasher or hot water may splash out of it.
Failure to USE CAUTION may result in injury.
