Loading the Bottom Rack
Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket
may vary from your model.
The lower rack is best for plates, saucers, bowls, and
cookware. Large items should be placed along the edge so
they do not block the spray arm rotation. For best results,
place bowls, casseroles, and sauce pans with soiled surface
facing down or toward the center. Tilt slightly for better
drainage.
Make sure tall items do not block spray arm rotation.
Be sure pan handles do not protrude through the bottom of
the rack and block the spray arm rotation.

Loading the Silverware Basket
Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket
may vary from your model.
Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack or
take the basket out for loading on a counter or table.
Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar lids, corn cob
holders, etc., in a covered section. Close the cover to
hold small items in place.
Use suggested loading patterns, as shown, to increase
washability of your silverware.
Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom of basket or
rack to block the spray arm.
Do not mix silver and stainless to avoid damaging the
silver finish.
The silverware basket can be separated and placed in
several locations in the bottom rack. Load silverware in
all sections or just one, depending on your load.
When covers are up, mix items in each section of the
basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid
nesting. Water spray cannot reach nested items.
