Proper Loading
Preparation for loading
It is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. Just remove large pieces and quantities of food and bones. The filtering system helps keep food particles out of the wash water. Small particles are flushed away as water is pumped out. Larger particles are trapped on the filter screen system. Referto “Dishwashercare and cleaning” on page 9 for filter screen cleaning instructions.
Always load dishes so soiled surfaces are reached by spray from rotating spray arm. Water must be able to drain off completely for best drying results. Be careful to separate items so spray can reach all surfaces.
Top rack loading
The top rack is designed for cups, glasses and smaller items.
Cup and glass load
nPlace so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.
. Load glasses in top rack only. Bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage may occur.
. Placeitems in the rows between
prongs. Placing them over the prongs can lead to breakage.
. Be sure lightweight items are held firmly in place.
a China, crystal and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation.
Damagemay occur. Page 6
Mixed load
. Load plastic items only in the top
rack. Only plastic items marked “DishwasherSafe” are recom- mended. Plastic items can melt in the bottom rack.
nLoad plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle.
Utensil load
nSmall bowls, pans and other utensils can be placed in the top rack.
Extra-capacity fold down shelf (Model WU!SOXX )
Extra shelves on the right and left side of the top rack can be folded down over short items (cups, juice glasses, cereal bowls, etc.) to hold extra items.
. Adjust rack height if necessary (see below).
. To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
Bottom rack loading
Items with
Dish load
nPlace plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing the spray.
nDo not place items directly over spray tower.
Mixed load
. Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of spray arm. Spray arm must move freely.
. Load items so they do not block or cover the spray tower.
nSecurely place heavily soiled cookware face down in rack.
Utensil load
. Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other items at sides or back. Loading items in front may keep water spray from reaching detergent dispenser.
