utensil load
• Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other large
items at sides and back. Loading such items in
front may keep water spray from reaching
detergent dispenser and silverware basket.
NOTE:
• Do not load glasses, cups or plastic items in the
bottom rack.
• When lower rack is removed, replace with
bumpers in front.
Utensil load
Silverware basket loading
Load forks and spoons so they don’t nest
together. Spray can't reach nested items.
Mix items in each section of the basket. Small
items - baby bottle caps, jar lids, etc. - can be
put in any section.
The silverware basket can be loaded while it's in
place on the door, or it can be taken out for loading
on the counter or table.
It can also be removed for easy unloading.
Always unload or remove the basket before un­
loading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets
on the silverware.
To remove the basket, slide it toward the top
of the door - by the handle. Lift it off the holding
buttons.
To replace the basket, set it on the holding
buttons. Slide the basket toward the bottom of the
door until it locks in place.
To open the basket, unhook the latch as
shown. Be sure the cover is completely latched
before pulling out the bottom rack and before
closing the dishwasher door.
A
warning
Personal Injury Hazard
To avoid cuts from sharp items (knives,
forks, skewers, etc.), make sure these items
are put in point down.
