Loading the lower rack

The lower rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils.

Load items with cooked-on or dried-on food in the lower rack with soiled surfaces facing in toward the spray.

For maximum capacity and stability of an all-plate load, stagger or overlap small plates with large ones.

Load plates side to side along with pots, pans, and large cookware, as shown.

Do not put small items in the lower rack if they are not secured in place.

Racks with teal-colored tips can be adjusted for different 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 prongs. Do not nest bowls because the spray won’t reach their surfaces.

Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of the dishwasher tub. This can block the water inlet opening.

The FLEXI-BASKET* silverware basket can be separated and placed into the lower rack in several locations. Hold basket firmly and pull apart. Now use both sections or just one to load silverware.
