STEP 1
Prepare and Load the Dishwasher
IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. Remove labels from containers before washing.
Rack loading
■Avoid overlapping items like bowls or plates that may trap food.
■Place plastics, small plates and glasses in the upper rack. Wash only plastic items marked “dishwasher safe.”
■To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation: Load dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.
■When loading silverware, always place sharp
items pointing down.
STEP 2
Add Detergent

■Make sure nothing keeps spray arm(s) from spinning freely. It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse cycle. Do not use detergent.
■Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add powder, liquid or tablet detergent just before starting a cycle.
