Loading the dishwasher racks.
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model.
Upper Rack
The upper rack is for glasses, cups and saucers. Cups and glasses fit best along the sides. This is also a secure place for
The cup shelf (on some models) may be placed in the up or down position to add flexibility.
Secure larger
Make sure small plastic items are secure so they can’t fall onto the heating element.
An upper wash arm (on some models) is located above the top rack. Check to make sure that tall items will not block rotation of this arm.
The Wash Tower
Keep the center area clear in the lower rack.
The wash tower rises through the center of the lower rack during the wash and rinse portions of the cycle.
A second wash tower (on some models) is located in the top rack. Water from the wash tower in the lower rack shoots up into this wash tower and out the openings at the top. When loading items around this wash tower do not block the top openings.
Don’t block or load tall things next to the
Wash Tower.
Also, be careful not to let a portion of an item such as a pot or dish handle extend through the bottom rack. This could block the wash arm and cause poor washing results.
