Preparing & Loading Dishes
LOADING THE SILVERWARE
BASKET TO AVOID CUT INJURY: Load sharp items

(knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down. Failure to

do so may result in injury.

Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom
rack or take the basket out for loading on a counter
or table.
• Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar
lids, corn cob holders, etc., in a
covered section. Close the cover to hold
small items in place.
• Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom
of basket or rack to block the lower spray
arm.
• Do not mix silver and stainless items to
avoid damaging the silver finish.
When covers are up, mix non-sharp items in each
section of the basket with some pointing up and
some down to avoid nesting. Water spray cannot
reach nested items.
