How to load the BOTTOM RACK.
Fit plates and saucers between the pins. Load platters, pots, pans and bowls along the sides, in corners or in the back.
Put flatware in the removable silverware basket. Load with handles up, to protect your hands. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest together. Distribute evenly. Take out anything that may fall or extend through the bottom of the basket.
Heavily soiled pots, pans and casseroles MUST be loaded in the bottom rack, facing down. Prop the broiler pan and rack along the edge, tilted toward the center. Shallow items may be angled provided the lower side does not shield the soiled surface inside from the water,
Don’t let any item extend through bottom.
