HOW TO LOAD YOUR DISHWASHER
This is a random mixed load, the most <omrnon type
you will have.
Make sure dishes are properly loaded to insure that
water can reach the soiled surfaces. The wash arm
in the bottom sprays water up. The tower that rises
in the center sends water out over the dishes to wash
the items in the upper rack. A spray arm in the top
washes down also. Make sure to place tall items to
the outside so the upper wash arm is not blocked.
The top rack is best for glasses, cups and saucers.
Cups and glasses fit best along the sides. This is
the place for dishwasher-safe plastics, too. Make
sure small plastic items are lodged in tightly so
they can't fall onto the Calrod" heating element.
Arrange stemware so that they cannot move
easily. Don't let the glasses touch each other.

HOW TO LOAD THE TOP RACK
WATCH OUT FOR THIS.
The wash tower rises through the center of the bottom
rack during the wash and rinse portions of the cycle.
Don't block it or load tall things next to it. Also, be
careful not to let a portion of an item such as a pot or
dish handle extend through the bottom rack. This could
block the wash arm and cause poor washing results.
Sauce pans, mixing bowls and other small items may
be placed—face down—in the top rack. The top rack
is handy for all kinds of odd shapes. Be sure the force
of water and detergent can reach soiled surfaces.
