DISHWASHER LOADING
PREPARE DISHES
•
Empty liquids from glasses and cups.
•
Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the
dishes and discard.
•
It is not necessary to hand-rinse dishes before loading them into the
dishwasher with the following exceptions:
•
Foods such as mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice and
tomato-based products may discolor stainless steel and plastics if
allowed to remain on them for any length of time.
•
Burned-on foods should be loosened before loading the cookware
into the dishwasher.
LOAD DISHES
•
It is IMPORTANT for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
•
Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible. For best
drying results, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.
•
Load heavy pots and pans carefully. Heavy items can dent the stainless
steel interior of the door if they are dropped or bumped.
•
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not
interfere with the spray arm rotation.
•
Make sure both the upper and lower spray arms are not blocked and
move freely.
QUIET OPERATING TIPS
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
•
Make sure lightweight items are secured in the racks.
•
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not
touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm.
•
Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during
dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.
