■Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser.

Mixed load

■Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.

■Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely.

■Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of the dishwasher tub because they might block the water inlet opening.

Loading 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: Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware.

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, skewers, etc.) pointing down.

NOTES:

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

■Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately.

DISHWASHER USE

Detergent Dispenser

The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The smaller Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door.

1.Cover latch

2.Main Wash section

3.Pre-Wash section

4.Cover

The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the wash. (See the “Cycle Selection Charts.”)

■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 a 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.Fill the Pre-Wash section, if needed.

4.Close the dispenser cover.

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

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with 2 washes. Use only the main wash section for cycles with 1 wash. See the “Cycle Selection Charts” for more details.
