Preparing and Loading Dishes
Dish Preparation
Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits, toothpicks, etc. The continuous filtered wash system will remove remaining food particles.
Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice and tomato based products may cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless the dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best to rinse off these food soils.
•Load racks so that large items do not prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.
•Check manufacturer’s recommendations before washing items in question.
•If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer, be sure disposer is completely empty before starting dishwasher.
