Loading
Middle Rack
A variety of items such
as cups, glasses, dinner
plates, mixing bowls,
pots and pans and
baking dishes can be
loaded in this rack.
Positioning the Fold-
Away ™ Tines (select
models) flat in front or
back of the silverware
basket provides
convenient loading
space for large, bulky
items like casserole
dishes, water pitchers,
pots and pans or
mixing bowls.
Lower Flexload
A variety of large items
such as casserole
dishes, baking pans,
mixing bowls, and pots
and pans can be loaded
in the lower rack. When
deeper dishes or pots
and pans are located in
this rack, the middle
rack can be raised (see
page 5). To accommodate exceptionally large,
occasionally used items such as a canner on the lower
Flexload ™ rack, the middle rack can be removed (see
page 5). For good wash action, place items so soiled
surfaces face down in the rack.
Utensil Baskets
Split & Fit ™ Utensil Basket
For best cleaning results, prevent items from nesting
together by placing a utensil in each slot. Load knives,
handles up and spoons and forks
handles down through the slots.
Be sure that thin, finely pointed
items do not extend through the
basket bottom. This could block
the wash arm.
™ Rack
When covers are not in use, place flatware in basket
some handles up and some down to avoid nesting.
Small, lightweight items like
baby spoons and plastic
measuring spoons should be
placed in a section of the
basket with cover closed.
The split silverware basket
can be separated in the
event both sections are not
needed to hold silverware.
To split the basket, hold the
basket firmly along the sides.
Unlock baskets as shown
here.
