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.

Do not cover third level wash (on some models). See arrow.

Cup and glass load

Mixed 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.

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

■To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.

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

■Wedge lightweight items against one another or overlap them with heavier dishes.

■Load plastic items securely in the top rack only. Wash only plastic items marked “dishwasher safe.”

■Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.

Extra-capacity fold-down shelves (on some models)

Fold down the extra shelf on the top rack to hold additional cups, or long items such as utensils and spatulas.

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.

Do not cover spray tower. See arrow.

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

Utensil load

■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 and silverware basket.

■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. You can block the water inlet opening.

NOTE: If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front.
