Loading your dishwasher

LOADING THE LOWER RACK

Load cookware (pots, pans, etc.), up to 12 in. (30 cm) in diameter into the lower rack. The lower rack has been especially designed for dinner dishes, soup bowls, plates, pots, lids, and casserole dishes.

We recommend loading cups, stemware, and small plates into the upper rack. See the recommended loading patterns below.

Loading large items into the zone booster areas

You can load large items such as pots and pans into the left and/or right sides of the lower rack - the Zone Booster areas - for more effective cleaning. When you select the Zone Booster option, an additional, powerful jet is activated and directed at items in the Zone Booster areas. Make sure pot handles and other items do not interfere with the rotation of the nozzles and the water refl ector.

LOADING THE UPPER RACK

The upper rack has been designed for small plates, mugs, glasses, and plastic items marked “dishwasher safe”. Load your plates into the dishwasher so that their top sides face each other.

Make sure the loaded dishes do not interfere with the rotation of the nozzle which is located at the bottom of the upper rack. (Check this by rotating the nozzle by hand.)

When loading dishes, pull the upper rack out sufficiently so you can load it without striking the counter above.

Using the glass support

You can place cups, small items and long cooking utensils on the cup selves. This is also a very convenient way to wash wine glasses.

Place wine glasses on the pegs of the cup selves. The cup selves can also be folded back when not in use.

Do not adjust the level of the upper basket with the glass supports

CAUTION propped up. This will make it impossible to push in the upper basket.
