PREPARING AND LOADING DISHES

Dish Preparation

Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits, toothpicks,

etc. The continuously filtered wash fluid 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 pre-rinse or use the Rinse Only cycle 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

the dishwasher.
