Loading the silverware basket
•Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack or take the basket out for loading on a counter or table.
NOTE: You can remove the basket for easy unloading. Always unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets on the silver- ware.
•Mix items in each section of the basket with some
pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items.
IMPORTANT: Always load sharp items (knives, skew- ers, forks, etc.) pointing down.
12 place setting
•Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the bottom rack.
•Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and fac- ing inward to the spray.
•Overlap edges of plates for large loads.
•Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.
•Load items so they do not block or cover the spray tower.
•Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the upper or lower spray arm. The spray arms must move freely.
Quiet operating tips
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
•Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.
•Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the spray arm'srotation.
•Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.
