Loading the Top Rack

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items. (See recommended loading patterns shown.)

NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown.

10 place setting load

Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.

Load glasses and cups in top rack only. The bottom rack is not designed for glasses and cups. Damage can 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.

Loading the Bottom Rack

The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See recommended loading patterns shown.)

NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown.

12 place setting load

Place cups and glasses in the rows between prongs. Placing them over the prongs can lead to breakage.

Cup and glass load

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

Mixed load

Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the bottom rack. Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are secured in place.

Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing inward to the spray.

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 prongs. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces

The KitchenAid KUDM25SH and KUDI25CH dishwashers showcase the brand's commitment to innovative design and advanced technologies, making them standout appliances in any modern kitchen. Both models combine a sleek aesthetic with powerful performance features tailored to meet diverse household needs.

One of the key features of the KitchenAid KUDM25SH is its ProWash Cycle. This intelligent cycle automatically determines the appropriate wash cycle based on the soil level and load size, ensuring optimal cleaning performance every time. Similarly, the KUDI25CH offers a comparable system that adjusts the wash cycle based on sensor feedback, which enhances water and energy efficiency.

Another significant characteristic is the Quiet Wash system. Both models operate at a remarkably low noise level, making them an excellent choice for open-concept living spaces or homes where peace and quiet are cherished. The strategically designed wash arms and insulated tanks minimize sound without compromising cleaning effectiveness.

For flexibility in loading, both dishwashers feature an adjustable upper rack, allowing for easy accommodation of taller items, such as stemware or large baking dishes. The KUDM25SH incorporates the Soft Grip stemware holders, while the KUDI25CH includes a dedicated third rack for utensils or small kitchen tools, maximizing the available loading space.

In terms of cleaning technology, both models come equipped with a powerful filtering system that traps food particles to ensure they do not redeposit on clean dishes. The high-efficiency wash system uses a combination of high-pressure spray jets and heated water to dissolve tough stains, resulting in sparkling clean dishes.

Innovatively designed interiors enhance usability and convenience in both dishwashers. They boast stainless steel interiors, which resist odors and stains, while the smooth surface makes for easier cleaning and maintenance. Additionally, the models feature a sleek control panel that is intuitive and easy to navigate, allowing users to select from multiple wash cycles and options effortlessly.

Energy efficiency is a priority for KitchenAid, and both the KUDM25SH and KUDI25CH have earned Energy Star certification, meaning they consume less water and energy than standard models, contributing to lower utility bills and a reduced environmental footprint.

In summary, the KitchenAid KUDM25SH and KUDI25CH dishwashers are characterized by their innovative features, advanced cleaning technologies, and user-friendly design. With options that cater to different household needs and preferences, they represent a perfect blend of style and functionality, making them ideal choices for modern kitchens.
