LOADING THE TOP RACK
Preparing & Loading Dishes
Glasses and cups — Place glasses and cups
against outside pins at an angle. Cups with a
concave bottom will collect water.
Small plates and saucers — Place dishes
between middle two rows of pins.
Plasticware — Load plasticware in the top rack
to avoid melting.
Bowls —Place bowls between the middle 2 rows
of pins facing down.
Miscellaneous items —Place long handled
knives and utensils in top rack.
Cup Shelf —The cup shelf can be folded down
over short items (juice glasses, cups, etc.) for more
loading space. When using cup shelf, alternate
items with layer below so that water can reach all
inside surfaces.
LOADING THE BOTTOM RACK
Large plates and platters — Place between
the support pins with soiled sides facing inward.
Bowls, casseroles and sauce pans —
Load upside down or at an angle facing inward.
Slightly tilting items will provide better drainage.
Pots and pans —Place upside down and at an
angle. Do not allow handles to protrude through
bottom of rack, blocking wash arm rotation. Load
large items at the sides and not across the front so
they do not block the detergent dispenser
preventing it from opening.
LOADING THE SILVERWARE
BASKET
Load sharp items with handles up. Be
sure items do not protrude through the holes in the
basket and stop the rotation of the spray arm.
Load silverware so items are mixed in each section
to prevent nesting. Water spray cannot effectively
reach nested items.
1. Make sure there is a full wash cycle yet to be
completed so that any added items are
thoroughly washed and rinsed.
2. Unlatch door and wait for water action to stop.
3. Open door and add dish.
4. Firmly close door to latch and resume cycle.
