LOADING YOUR
DISHWASHER
Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks
and other
hard items from the dishes• it is not necessary to rinse
the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher• The
wash module removes food particles from the water.
The module contains a chopping device which will
reduce the size of food items•
NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and egg
shells enter the wash module, you might hear chopping,
grinding, crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds
are normal when hard items enter the module• Do not let
metallic items (such as pot handle screws) get into the
wash module• Damage can occur•
Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the spray (down or
inward)• It is important for the water spray to reach all
soiled surfaces•
•
Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if
possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain
from all surfaces.
•
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie
sheets, etc., do not interfere with the spray arm
rotation.
Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not
plan to wash them soon. Foods like eggs, rice, pasta,
spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if
they are left to dry over a period of time.
Quiet operating tips

noises during operation:

racks.

sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with
the rotation of the spray arm.

China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch
each other during dishwasher operation• Damage may
occur•
Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic
items marked "dishwasher safe" are recommended•
Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not

the top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best
stability.
