NOTE: The features on your silverware basket may vary from
those shown below.
Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack or take
the basket out for loading on a counter or table.
NOTE: Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks
to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware. Mix items in
each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down
to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items.
Select the wash cycle and options desired. Or press START/
RESUME to repeat the same cycle and options as in the previous
cycle.
NOTE: If the last cycle you completed was a rinse cycle, the
dishwasher will run the last full wash cycle and options that you
selected when you press Start/Resume.
If the power is off or the door is open for an extended period
of time, the Start/Resume button memory will default to the
Normal cycle with heated drying.
If you do not run the dishwasher daily, close the door to
maintain memory.
