■It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.

■Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.

■Load heavy pots and pans carefully. Heavy items can dent the stainless steel interior of the door if they are dropped or bumped.

■Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation.

■Conserve water, energy and save time over hand rinsing by running a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to wash them soon. Foods such as eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry over a period of time.

Quiet operating tips

To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:

■Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.

■Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm.

■Load dishes so they do not touch one another.

NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.

■Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing them over the tines can lead to breakage and water spots.

Cup and glass load

■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.
