Loading
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.
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.
IMPORTANT:
Do not load large or
tall utensils where they may block the
detergent dispenser, mid spray arm, or
become trapped between the door and
the gasket when the door is closed.
Deep Clean Silverware Jets
(on some models)
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.
