Top Rack Accessories
Top Rack Flip Tines
Flip Tines fold down to make loading the racks easier in some instances. Grasp the tines,
release from notch, and fold the tines downward. When the top rack is loaded, push it into
the dishwasher.
NOTE: When pushing the top rack into the dishwasher, push it until it stops against the
back of the tub so the top rack spray arm wilt connect to the water supply. Do not push the
top rack with the door.
Top Rack Height Adjustment
Remove the empty upper rack by pulling it out of the dishwasher to the point that it can
be lifted upward, as shown in Figure 4. Pull the rack outward and up until the rollers are
completely free of the roller guides. Re-insert the rack with the other set of rollers on the
roller guides, asshown in Figure 5.
Loading the Bottom Rack
Place large items in the bottom rack. Load pots, pans and bowls upside-down. Figures 6
and 7 show typical mixed loads for the bottom rack.
Bottom Rack Flip Tines
Flip Tines fold down to make loading the racks easier in some instances. Grasp the tines
and fold them downward.
Loading Extra Tall Items (select models)
If an item is too tail to be placed into the bottom rack even with the top rack in the raised
position, remove the empty top rack by pulling it out of the dishwasher until it stops
roiling. Putt the front of the rack upward and outward until the rollers are completely free
of the roller guides. Set the top rack aside. Push the roller guides back into the dishwasher.
Insert the Extra Tail Item Sprinkler into the top rack spray outlet and turn the sprinkler
clockwise to lock it into position asshown in Figure 8. Place your extra tail item(s) in the
bottom rack as shown in Figure 9.
NOTE: Keep the vent on the tub's right side clear by placing tail items such as plastic
cutting boards and tail baking sheets on the bottom rack's left side, center, or back.
ATTENTION
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not reinstall the top rack without removing the extra
tall item sprinkler. Do not reinstall the top rack with the sprinkmer installed.

Loading the Silverware Basket
NOTE: The silverware basket tops can be folded up to accommodate large or oddly-shaped
items.

suggested in Figures 10 (for standard basket) and 11 (for flexible basket). Place knives with
their handles up, and forks and spoons with their handles down.
If large or oddly-shaped items are to be loaded into the silverware basket with the tops up,
load the items so that they do not nest together. Load knives and sharp utensils with their
handles up.
