Loading The Dishwasher - Kenwood KDW24FI/B User Manual

Loading the Dishwasher

Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the larger
food debris to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which
results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard
to remove, we recommend that they be allowed to soak before
they are washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash
cycles.
Pull out the rack to facilitate loading the dishwasher.
How to Use the Lower Rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items
on the bottom rack: pots, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown
in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of
the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray
arm.
- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
- Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket with the
handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons
should be placed individually into the appropriate slots. Espe-
cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at
the front of the upper rack( see Fig.A).
How to Use the Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
dishware, such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as
well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they
are not too dirty).
- Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved
by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs
located on the sides of the rack itself (see fig.B).
Knife rack
The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you
the freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and out
of harm's way (see fig.C).
