If large or oddly-shaped items are to be loaded into the silverware basket with the lids up, load the items so that they do not nest together. Load knives and sharp utensils with their handles up.

The basket splits along its length, making two halves that may be placed in a variety of positions in the lower rack, greatly increasing the lower rack’s loading versatility.

To split the Flexible Silverware Basket:

1.Grasp the basket and slide the two halves

in opposite directions as shown in Figure 21a.

Figure 21a

2.Pull the two halves apart as shown in Figure 21b.

Figure 21b

3.See Figure 20 for suggestions for placing the two halves in the lower rack.
