Your new dishwasher features ASKO's Super Cleaning
System™. This means that after prewash, mainwash
and intermediate rinse the water is drained out and the
cycle continues with clean water.

LOADING THE UPPER BASKET

After you have scraped off the large food particles, place
glasses, cups, saucers, bowls and small plates in the upper
basket, as illustrated.
Load stemware with the stem fitted inside one of the grooved
tines on the stemware rack.
The fold-down cup shelf on the right side of the basket gives
you an additional place to stack cups and small bowls. You
can also stack items on the stemware rack.
This model has a knife stop on the front of the upper basket.
This gives you a safe place to load long utensils and knives
that won't fit in the silverware basket. The knife stop prevents
knives or utensils from damaging the door when you open
and close it.
NOTE: When loading sharp items, always be careful not to
cut the rack coating.

Whenever possible, knives and long utensils should be loaded in the knife/
utensil basket attached above the upper basket. To avoid injury, items with
the sharp ends should always be loaded with the sharp ends pointed
toward the back of the dishwasher. Again, always be careful not to cut the
rack coating when loading sharp items.

Load larger items in the lower basket, such as, dinner plates,
pots and pans, serving dishes, and casseroles. Be sure to load
dishware facing downward or toward the center of the
dishwasher.

The silverware basket is designed with eight compartments to
help keep the silverware separated. Load silverware with the
handles downwards and spread it out as much as possible to
avoid nesting. For safety, load sharp knives with the handles
up.
Avoid placing silverware made of different materials (e.g., silver
and stainless) in the same compartment because of the risk
of discoloration. (See page 14.)
Small Items Containment Lid
The silverware basket has a lid in the middle that snaps down
over the compartments to its left or right to contain small,
lightweight items that might slip through the rack tines or get
washed out of the basket. The small items lid is slotted, so
you also could use it to keep silverware separated, such as
teaspoons.

If you plan to start your dishwasher right away, it's not
necessary to rinse the dishes. You do, however, need
to scrape off the large particles of food before loading.
