Loading the dishwasher racks.
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware
baskets may vary from your model.
Upper Rack
Although the u er rack is for glasses, cu s and
saucers, ots and ans can be laced in this rack
for effective cleaning. Cu s and glasses fit best
along the sides. This is also a secure lace for
dishwasher-safe lastics.
The utility shelf (on some models) may be laced in
the u or down osition to add flexibility. A wine
glass holder (on some models) secures wine
glasses for best washability. Because wine glasses
come in various sizes, after loading, slowly ush
in the rack to make sure they will clear the to of
the dishwasher.
The u er rack is good for all kinds of odd-sha ed
utensils. Sauce ans, mixing bowls and other items
should be laced face down. Fold-down tines (on
some models) rovide flexibility for extra-large and
hard-to-fit items.
Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastics over 2 tines
when possible.
Make sure small plastic items are secure so they
can’t fall onto the heater.
Be sure that items do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack and block rotation of the
middle spray arm. This could result in poor wash
performance for items in the upper rack.
Check to make
sure that no items
will block rotation
of the wash arms.
Lower Rack
The lower rack is best used for lates, saucers and
cookware. Large items such as broiler ans and
baking racks should go along the left-hand side.
Load latters, ots and bowls along the sides, in
corners or in the back. The soiled side of items
should face the center of the rack. If necessary,
oversized glasses and mugs can be laced in the
lower rack to maximize loading flexibility.
Also, be careful not to let a ortion of an item such
as a ot or dish handle extend through the bottom
rack. This could block the wash arm and cause
oor washing results.
Fold-down tines (on some models) rovide
flexibility for extra-large and hard-to-fit items. The
tines may be left in the u osition or folded down
to customize the lower rack.
Do not let any item
extend through the
bottom of the silverware
basket. Items that
extend through the rack
could prevent the spray
arm from turning and
cause poor wash
performance.
Silverware Basket
To load flatware, sim ly ush the adjustable
handle to either side (on some models). Put
flatware in the removable basket with fork and
knife handles u to rotect your hands. Place
s oons in the basket with handles down. Mix
knives, forks and s oons so they don’t nest
together. Distribute evenly. Small lastic items,
such as measuring s oons and lids from small
containers, should go in the bottom of the
silverware basket with the silverware on to .
The one- iece silverware basket (on some models)
can be laced in the front, right side or back of the
lower rack.
A variety of o tions is available regarding the
three- iece silverware basket (on some models)
in your dishwasher. The com lete basket is
designed to fit on the right side of the lower rack.
Additionally, each end of the basket is removable
to add loading flexibility to accommodate flatware
and lower rack ca acity needs.
The lids of both end and middle baskets
(on some models) can be closed to contain small
items. Long items can be laced on the utility shelf
in the u er rack.
The accessory
basket (on some
models) can hold
small items such
as: baby bottle
ni les, lastic lids,
corn cob holders, etc.
To remove end baskets, grasp the
basket at opposite corners and slide
apart.
