LoadingTopRack

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.

Cup and glass load

Mixed load

Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.

Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage can occur.

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

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

Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended.

Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle.

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

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

Small items basket

This basket fits in the top rack.

Light item clips (on some models)

The light-item clips hold lightweight plastic items such as cups, lids, or bowls in place during washing. You can move a clip anywhere in the rack.

To move a clip

1.Pull the clip up and off the tine.

2.Reposition the clip on another tine.

LoadingBottomRack

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.

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

Use it to hold small items that could otherwise “fly” around inside the dishwasher during a cycle.
