LOADING THE DISHWASHER
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets
may vary from your model.
SILVERWARE BASKET
Place flatware in the removable silverware baskets. Sharp
objects, such as forks and knives, may be placed with the
handles facing up, in order to protect your hands. For the
best wash performance, place other items such as spoons
with the handles facing down. Avoid allowing items to nest
together, which may keep them from being properly washed.
When loading, distribute items evenly in the basket.
The silverware baskets may also be used for small items,
such as measuring spoons, baby bottle nipples, plastic lids,
or corn cob holders. The silverware basket covers can be
closed to contain small items.
The silverware basket may be positioned by placing the
hooks on the back of the basket over the top wire on the
sides of the lower rack.
DEEP CLEAN SILVERWARE JETS
Deep Clean Silverware Jets target stubborn, stuck-on food
and help separate nested spoons and forks to keep your
silverware spotless no matter how you load the silverware.
For optimal silverware cleaning, the use of silverware
basket lids is always recommended. For models with the
third rack, the Deep Clean Silverware Jets can also be
used to clean mixing bowls and other cookware.
Do not remove Deep Clean Silverware Jet spray assembly
from the dishwasher rack.
Silverware/flatware is loaded using the silverware basket lids. This ensures great wash performance of the silverware.
Loading in this manner prevents nesting and makes sure all items are washed uniformly.
