10 Preparing & Loading Dishes
LOADING THE SILVERWARE
BASKET
TO AVOID CUT INJURY: Load sharp items (knives,
skewers, etc.) pointing down. Failure to do so may
result in injury.
• 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.
• Be sure nothing protrudes through the
bottom of the basket or rack that might
block the lower spray arm.
• Do not mix silver and stainless items to
avoid damaging the silver finish.
When covers are up, mix non-sharp items in each
section of the basket with some pointing up and
some down to avoid nesting. Water spray cannot
reach nested items.
ADDING A DISH
To add or remove items after wash cycle
starts:
1 Open door slightly and wait a few seconds
until wash action stops before completely
opening.
2 Add the item.
3 Close door firmly to latch and the cycle will
automatically resume.
TO AVOID BURN INJURY: Slightly open door and
wait until spray arms and wash action stop. Hot
water may splash out of dishwasher. Failure to do
so may result in injury.
The top rack has two height settings. Adjust the
rack down to the low height to accommodate
loading of tall glasses. Adjust it to the high setting
to make room for tall dishware in the lower rack.
To avoid damage to dishware always adjust the
upper rack’s height before loading dishware into it.
To change the rack position with the greatest ease
lift or lower the rack so that it remains level from
front to back and from side to side. To raise the
rack from the low to the high position simply grab
the top rack (one hand on each side) and lift it
straight up. The lever is spring loaded and will
engage when the upper position is reached. To
release the rack and lower it to the bottom position
grab the rack as shown in the figure below, extend
your fingers to pull on the lever and gently lower the
rack to its level and lowest setting.
ADJUSTING RACK HEIGHT
• Silverware placed one item per slot will
result in the best cleaning.
The silverware basket may be loaded while
it is in the bottom rack or it can be taken to
a counter or table.
