Loading the dishwasher racks GEAppliances.com
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of rocks and silverware
baskets may vary from your model
Upper Rack
The upper rack is for glasses, cups and
saucers. Cups and glasses fit best along
the sides. This is also a secure place
for dishwasher-safe plastics. The upper
rack is good for all kinds of odd-shaped
utensils. Saucepans, mixing bowls and
other items should be placed face down.
Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastics
over two fingers when possible.
Make sure small plastic items are secure
so they can't fall onto the heating element.
Lower Rack
Whenloading the lower rock,do not load
large platters or trays in the front right
comer.Theymay prevent detergent from
circulating during the wash cycle.
The lower rack is best used for plates,
saucers and cookware. Large items such
as broiler pans and racks should go
along the sides. Load platters, pots and
bowls along the sides, in corners or in the
back. The soiled side of items should face
the center of the rack.
Wash Tower
Keepthe center area clearin the lower
rock.
Thewash tower rises through the
center of the lower rack during the
wash and rinse portions of the cycle.
Tower
Do not cover upper rack tower
(not present on all modelsl
Don't block the upper rack
wash tower.
Don't block the wash
tower or load tall things
next to it.
Be sureitems don't fall
through rack and block
rotation of the spray arm.
Also, be careful not to
let a portion of an item
such as a pot or dish
handle extend through
the bottom rack. This
could block the wash
arm and causepoor
washing results.
Silverware Basket
Put flatware in the removable basket
with fork and knife handles up to protect
your hands. Place spoons in the basket
with handles down. Mix knives,forks
and spoons so they don't nest together.
Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such
as measuring spoons and lids from small
containers, should go in the bottom of the
silverware basket with silverware on top.
DON'T LET ANY ITEM EXTEND THROUGH
BOTTOM OF SILVERWARE BASKET AND
RACK, TO ENSURE PROPER FUNCTION
OF SPRAY ARM.
