Loading the bottom rack
Load items with cooked-on or dried-on food
in the bottom rack, with soiled surfaces
facing inward to the spray.

Mixed load

l Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between
prongs and facing inward to the spray.
l Make sure pot handles and other
items do
not stop rotation of the spray arm. Spray
arm must move freely.
l Load items so they do not block or cover
the spray tower.
l Secure heavily soiled cookware face down
in rack.
l Do not stack or overlap dishes. Water
spray must reach all soiled surfaces for
best results.

Utensil load

l Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other
large items at sides and back. Loading
such items in front may keep water spray
from reaching detergent dispenser and
silverware basket.
NOTE:
l Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items
in the bottom rack.
l Do not load items between the bottom rack
and the dishwasher
tub. This can block the
water inlet opening.
l If you have removed the bottom rack for
unloading or cleaning, replace it with
bumpers in front.
Do not cover spray tower
face dishwasher door
