Upper Rack Loading

LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

Upper Rack Loading

•Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.

•Load glasses in upper rack only between tines.

Lower rack is not designed for glasses and damage may occur.

• Be sure lightweight items are held firmly in place.

•Load plastic items in the upper rack only. Plastic items may melt in the lower rack. Only items marked “Dishwasher Safe” or equivalent are recommended.

•China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch other items during the dishwasher’s operation.

Lower Rack Loading

•Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the lower spray arm or block the center wash tower from extending upward.

•Items with cooked-on or dried-on foods should be loaded in the lower rack with soiled surfaces facing the spray.

•Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other large items at the sides. Do not place them across the front where they will prevent water from reaching the detergent dispenser.

•Place plates, soup bowls, etc. between tines and facing the spray.

NOTE: Do not block the center area of the lower rack when loading. Because the center wash tower extends through this area, blockage may result in poor cleaning.

Do not block center area.

Silverware Basket Loading

• The silverware basket may be loaded while
positioned in the lower rack or on the counter
top.
• Be sure no items protrude through the holes
in the basket or extend high enough to stop
the spray arm’s rotation.
• Load sharp items with the points down.
• Load silverware so items are mixed in each
section to prevent nesting (see illustration).
Water spray cannot effectively clean nested	Nested Utensils
items.	Nested Utensils
