NOTES:
• DO not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless
steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each
other during washing.

etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do
not have a full load to wash immediately.
• Use suggested loading patterns, as shown, to increase
washability of your silverware.
• This silverware basket can be separated and placed into the
bottom rack in several locations. Load silverware in all
sections or just one, depending upon your load.
