GE Loading the Racks, Adjustable Upper Rack (on some models), Silverware Basket

To load flatware, simply push the adjustable
handle to either side (on some models).
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 the silverware on top.
The one-piece silverware basket can be
placed in the front, right side or back of the
lower rack.
A variety of options are available regarding the
three-piece silverware basket (on some models)
in your dishwasher. The complete basket is
designed to fit on the right side of the lower
rack. Additionally, each end of the basket is
removable to add loading flexibility to
accommodate flatware and lower rack
capacity needs.
The lids of both end and middle baskets
(on some models) can be closed to contain
small items. Long items can be placed on the
utility shelf in the upper rack.
The standard position of your adjustable rack
is “up” which allows for maximum clearance for
your taller items in the lower rack. If you have
taller wine glasses, tumblers or other items to
place in the upper rack, you may want to adjust
the rack to the lower position.
To lower the rack, support the weight of the
rack with your hands as shown and press both
finger pads about 1/4″toward the inside of the
rack as indicated and guide the rack down to
its lower position.
To raise the rack to the “up” position, pull up
on the center of the rack side frame until the
rack locks into place.
