Lower Rack
When loading the lower rack, do not load tall platters
or trays in the front left corner. They may prevent
detergent cup from opening during the wash cycle.
The lower rack is best used for large trays, saucepans
and cookware. There is 15clearance for tall items.
Large items such as broiler pans and racks should go
along the sides. Load platters, pots and bowls along
the sides, in corners or in the back. The soiled side
of items should face down or the center of the rack.
Fold-down tray dividers provide flexibility for extra
large and hard-to-fit items.
The tray dividers may be left in the up position or
folded down to customize the lower rack.
Silverwareand UtensilBasket
Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and knife handles up to protect your hands. Place
spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest together.
Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such as measuring spoons and lids from small containers,
should go in the bottom of the silverware basket with silverware on top.
Flip-down covers can be lowered to secure lightweight items from the effects of the vigorous wash
action. The slots in the covers can be used to separate silverware.
Don’t let any item extend through bottom
