How to Prepare the Dishes for Washing
If this is your first dishwasher, or if you're replacing
a much older model, you may wonder how much
preparation your dishes need. Actually very little.
Pre-rinsing of normal food soils is not necessary. With
common sense and a little practice you'll soon know
what foods to remove. Here are some guidelines:
1. Scrape off bones, seeds, skins, toothpicks and other
hard solids. It is also best to remove hard-shelled
vegetables, meat trimmings, leafy vegetables and
crusts. Remove excessive quantities of oil or grease.
2. Remove large quantities of any food. Your
dishwasher has a built-in soft food disposer that
pulverizes soft food bits and flushes them away.
It can handle small amounts of soft foods. but
NOTE: The foods mentioned are examples only.
Other foods not mentioned may also need to be
removed from your dishes. You may also want to
consider removing foods such as mustard, mayonnaise,
vinegar, lemon juice and other foods that can.cau.se _

on dishes for a long period of time.
When using the I?OTSCRUBBER cycle, less
preparation is required before loading. The
POTSCRUBBER cycle can wash heavily-soiled dishes
and remove dried-on and baked-on soils from pots,
pans and casseroles. Items with burned-on soils may
not come clean. And the dishwasher cannot remove

during cooking.
3. Try to remove food scraps and place dishes in
dishwasher before soil has a chance to dry and
become hard. Dishes with dried-on soil are more
difficult to wash and may not come clean in the
NORMAL WASH cycle. Remember to use your
RINSE & HOLD cycle for small "holding" loads.
