How to Use the Lower Rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
-Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.
-Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
-The silverware basket can be doubled (see Fig. A) so that only one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This makes space for additional pots and pans on the lower rack.
-Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe- cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs located on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.B).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they are not moved by the spray of water.
