LOADING THE TOP RACK
The top rack is designed for glasses, cups, plates, bowls and saucers. Glasses, cups, plates, bowls, saucers and small pots may be loaded in many different positions to fit your needs. Figure 3, shows a typical mixed load for an upper rack washing load.
The dishwasher should be loaded so that water can
ci_ulate freely and reach every part of every item that is tO be eleanad:
•Cups, glasses and containers should be placed in upper rack upside down so that water drains off of them and does not collect in them. Tall narrow vessels, such as a vase or tall glass, should be placed in the lower rack, near the middle, for the best cleaning result.

The Bosch dishwashers have a special feature incorporated into the flip down cup shelves on the side of the upper rack. The ends of these shelves are specially formed to help maintain spacing between stemmed glasses. When in the flipped down position long stemmed glasses may be placed in the second row from the edge and placed so their stems rest in the "V" formed ends of the shelves. When the cup shelves are in the up position long stemmed glasses may be placed in the first row with their stems placed to rest between the tooth like projections of the shelves.
China, crystal and other delicate items must be placed so that they do not touch each other during dishwasher operation. Chipping or other damage may occur if items can touch each other while dishwasber is running.
Large serving spoons and forks, spatulas, tongs and large knives can be placed in top rack. Be sure to space these large utensils so that water may flow freely over them and so that water does not collect in them; - - - serving spoons and ladles should be placed facing downward so as not to collect water.
At completion of loading of the upper rack check to make sure that nothing is protruding through or hanging beneath the bottom of the rack, which could block the rotation of the spray arm.

LOADING THE LOWER RACK
•Large and/or heavily soiled items should be placed in the lower rack of the dishwasher. Heavily soiled pots and pans should be placed face down. See figure 4.
