Loading Top Rack
The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items.
Many items, up to 9 in. (22 cm), fit in the top rack. (See
recommended loading patterns shown.)
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
■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.
■Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing
them over the tines can lead to breakage and water spots.
■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.
