This section tells you how to properly toad your dishwasher for the best washing and rinsing results.

Preparing to load the dishwasher

l To save water and energy, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

l Remove large pieces of food, bones and other hard items. The POWER CLEANTM module will remove food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.

NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts and egg shells enter the POWER CLEAN module, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching or buzzing sounds. Those sounds are normal when hard items enter the mod- ule. Do not let metallic items (such as pot handle screws) get into the POWER CLEAN module. This could damage the POWER CLEAN module.

l Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are

left to dry over a period of time. .. .

Run a Rinse & Hold cycle to keep dlStES moist if you do not plan to wash them soon.

l Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the rotating spray arms.

l Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping. It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces for best washing. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.

Loading the top rack

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses and smaller items. Do not cover the third level wash when loading the top rack.

Cup and glass load

l Place so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.

l Load glasses in top rack only-bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage may occur.

l Place items in the rows between prongs. Placing them over the prongs can lead to breakage.

l Be sure lightweight items are held firmly in place.

l China, crystal and other delicate items must not touch each other during dish- washer operation. Damage may occur.

Do not cover third level wash
