Before You Start

➢Don’t prerinse. Simply scrape off any bones or large food particles.

➢If connected to a food waste disposer, make certain the disposer is empty before starting the dishwasher.

➢Scrape off tomato-based food soils (see page 8).

➢Remove certain foods (such as mus- tard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, vine- gar, salt or dressings) from stainless steel flatware as soon as possible. These foods may cause rusting and pitting if allowed to remain in contact with the surface for an extended peri- od of time.

General

Recommendations

➢Place all items in the racks so they are separated and facing center.

➢Items can be centered behind a single tine or loaded at an angle to maximize space.

➢Load items so they do not rest over the top of the wash tower.

➢Avoid blocking the upper and lower spray arms by not allowing items to extend beyond the racks.

The Stack-Rack(select models) on the right side of the upper rack folds up or down for loading flexibility. Fold it down to hold long- handled knives, spatulas and spoons or short items like cups or juice glasses. Fold it up for taller items like glasses, bowls, plates, etc.

The wavy wire on the Vari-Lock™Snugger (select models) and the Stack- Rack (select models) is designed to hold stemware in place. Taller stemware will fit better on the right side as the upper rack is deeper on this side.
