Loading the silverware
basket
• Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack
or take the basket out for loading on a counter or table.
NOTE: You can remove the basket for easy unloading.
Always unload or remove the basket before unloading
the racks to avoid spilling water droplets on the silver­
ware.
• Place small items (baby bottle caps, jar lids, etc.) in a
section with a hinged cover. Close the cover over the
seotion to hold small items in place.
•
• You can separate the two small baskets from the large
basket and position the small baskets elsewhere in the
upper or lower rack.
To remove a small basket:
1. Hold the center basket with one hand, and one of the
small baskets with the other hand.
2. Slide the small basket to release tabs from
corresponding slots.
3. Pull baskets apart.
• Mix items in each section of the basket with some
pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray
cannot reach nested items.
IMPORTANT: Always load sharp items (knives,
skewers, forks, etc.) pointing down.
Quiet operating tips
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
• Make sure lightweight load items are secured in
the racks.
• Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie
sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with
the spray arm’s rotation.
• Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher
operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.
