IMPORTANT: Always load sharp items (knives, skewers, forks, etc.) pointing down.

To remove a small basket

1.Hold the center basket and one small basket. Slide the small basket forward to release the tabs from the corresponding slots.

2.Pull the baskets apart.

NOTES:

Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each other during washing.

USING YOUR

DISHWASHER

_.__"'_ _ .... _,,

*_ed:}

The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash

section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door.

1. 2. 3. 4.

1.Cover

2.Main wash section

3.Cover latch

4.Pre-wash section

The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See the "Cycle Selection Chart.")

Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance.

Add detergent just before starting cycle.

Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better

cleaning.

NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.

Filling the dispenser

1.If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by pushing the Cover latch.

2.Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See "How Much Detergent to Use."

3.Close the Main Wash dispenser cover. Fill the Pre- Wash section if needed.

It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with 2 washes. Use only the covered section for cycles with 1 wash. See the "Cycle Selection Chart" for more details.
