China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.

Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended.

Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle.

To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.

Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.

No-flip clips (on some models)

The no-flip clips hold lightweight plastic items such as cups, lids, or bowls in place during washing.

Overlap the edges of plates for large loads.

Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls securely between the rows of tines. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces.
