Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model.
Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and knife handles up to protect your hands. Place
spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don't nest together.
Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such as measuring spoons and lids from small containers,
should go in the bottom of the silverware basket with silverware on top.
Flip down covers can be lowered to secure lightweight items from the effects of the vigorous wash
action. The slots in the covers can be used to separate silverware.
When loading the lower rack, do not load large platters
or trays in the front left corner. They may prevent
detergent from circulating during the wash cycle.
The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers, and
cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and
racks should go along the sides. 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.
Fold-down fingers provide flexibility for extra large
and hard-to-fit items.
The fingers may be left in the up position or folded
down to customize the lower rack.
