Loading the dishwasher racks.
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware
baskets may vary from your model.
Upper Rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicateand lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cup 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
Upper Rack 8 place settings
Lower Rack
We recommend that you place large items which aremost difficult to clean into the lower rack: pots, pans, lids,
serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the
top spray arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down.
Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.
Bottom Rack 8 place settings
Silverware Basket
Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with handles at the bottom: If the rack has side baskets,
the spoon should be loaded individually into the appropriate slots, Especially long utensils should be placed
in the horizontal position at the front of the upper rack.
