Loading the Bottom Rack

Features and appearance of racks and silverware
basket may vary from your model.
The lower rack is best for plates, saucers, bowls,
and cookware. Large items should be placed along
the edge so they do not block the spray arm
rotation. For best results, place bowls, casseroles,
and sauce pans with soiled surface facing down or
toward the center. Tilt slightly for better drainage.
Make sure tall items do not block spray arm
rotation.
Be sure pan handles do not protrude through the
bottom of the rack and block the spray arm
rotation.

Fold-down Tines
The fold-down tines in the lower rack make easy
loading for those extra large and hard-to-fit items.
The tines may be left up for normal use or folded
down for more flexible loading. Fold down for more
space to load large pots or pans.
Removable High-Side Shelf
(available on select models)
The removable high-side shelf can be used to hold
serving spoons, spatulas, or other small items.
The shelf can also fold up or be removed for more
space to load large pots or pans.
When using the high-side shelf, ensure that
objects in the lower rack do not block the rotation
of the middle spray arm.
