Preparing & Loading Dishes
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 Bottom Rack
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.
To add or remove items after wash cycle starts:
• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until wash
action stops before opening.
• Add the item and wait a few seconds to allow
cold air to slowly expand inside dishwasher.
• Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.
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.
Loading the Silverware Basket
TO AVOID CUT INJURY: Load sharp items
(knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down. Failure to
do so may result in injury.
