Upper Rack
Although the upper rock is primarily for
glosses,cups and saucers, pots and pans con
be placed in this rack for effective cleaning.
Cups and glosses fit best along the sides.This
is also a secure place for dishwasher plastics.
The utility shelf (some models) may be placed
in the up or down position to add flexibility. A
wine gloss holder (some models) secures wine
glossesfor best washability.
Some models hove contoured metal cup
shelvesthat con secure up to 12 wine glosses
(asshown).
Because wine glossescome in various sizes,
offer loading, slowly push in the rock to make
sure they will clear the top of the dishwasher.
Some models have on Angled Rack System,
which allows you to angle your dishes,such
as coffee mugs, for better cleaning and
quicker drying. To position the tines, pull the
lever forward then drop the tines into
position, then releasethe lever.
The upper rock is good for oil kinds of
odd-shaped utensils. Saucepans,mixing
bowls and other items should be placed face
down. Fold-down tines (on some models)
provide flexibility for extra-large and hard-
to-fit items.
Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastics over
2 tines when possible.
Make sure small plastic items are secure so
they can't fall onto the heater.
Be sure that items do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack and block rotation of
the middle spray arm. This could result in
poor wash performance for items in the
upper rock.
Check to make sure that no items will block
rotation of the wash arm.
NOTE: The Single RockWash selection, on
models with this feature, washes the upper
rock only. If you use this feature, do not load
items in the lower rock.

Adjustable Upper Rack
The standard position of your adjustable rack
is "up" which allows for maximum clearance
for your taller items in the lower rack. If you
have taller wine glasses,tumblers or other
items to place in the upper rack, you may
want to adjust the rack to the lower position.
To lower the rack support the weight of the
rack with your hands as shown and press
both finger pads about 1/4" toward the inside
of the rack as indicated and guide the rack
down to its lower position.
To raise the rack to the "up" position, pull up
on the center of the rack side frame until the
rack locks into place.

Lower Rack
The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers
and cookware. Large items such as broiler
pans and baking racks should go along the
left-hand side. Load platters, pots and bowls
along the sides,in corners or in the back. The
soiled side of items should face the center of
the rack. If necessary, oversized glassesand
mugs can be placed in the lower rack to
maximize loading flexibility.
Also, be careful not to let a portion of an item
such as a pot or dish handle extend through
the bottom rack. This could block the wash
arm and cause poor washing results.
Fold-down tines (on some models) provide
flexibility for extra-large and hard-to-fit items.
Thetines may be left in the up position or
folded down to customize the lower rack.
