• Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the
sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the
water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser.
• Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.
• Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation
of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely.
• Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of
the dishwasher tub because they might block the water inlet
opening.
NOTE: If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or
cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front,
Fold-down tines
You can fold down one or both rows of tines at the back of the
bottom rack.
