1.Cover

2.Main wash section

3.Cover latch

4.Pre-wash section (Do not use this section with the Normal Wash cycle.)

2.Lift the basket off the holding buttons.

To replace the basket in the door

1.Set the silverware basket on the holding buttons.

2.Slide the basket toward the bottom of the door until it locks in place.

NOTES:

Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each other during washing.

Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately.

The Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See the “Cycle Selection Chart.”)

Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance.

Add detergent just before starting cycle.

Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.

NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.

Filling the dispenser

1.If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by pushing the Cover latch.

2.Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See “How Much Detergent to Use.”

3.Close the Main Wash dispenser cover. Fill the Pre- Wash section if needed.

NOTE: If you select the Normal cycle by turning the Cycle Control knob before filling the dispenser, the detergent dispenser cover will not stay latched. This is normal and will not affect washing performance.

It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with 2 washes. Use only the covered section for cycles with 1 wash. See the “Cycle Selection Chart” for more details.
