Adding a Dish
1. Make sure there is a full wash cycle yet to be
completed so that any added items are
thoroughly washed and rinsed.
2. Unlatch door and wait for water action to stop.
3. Open door and add dish.
4. Firmly close door to latch and resume cycle.
Loading the Silverware
Basket
Load sharp items with handles up. Be sure
items do not protrude through the holes in the
basket and stop the rotation of the spray arm.
Load silverware so items are mixed in each
section to prevent nesting. Water spray cannot
effectively reach nested items.
Preparing and Loading Dishes
DO NOT block the center area of the lower
rack when loading. Because the center wash
tower extends through this area, blockage
may result in poor cleaning.
Loading the Bottom Rack
Large plates and platters—Place
between the support pins with soiled sides facing
inward.
Bowls, casseroles and sauce
pans
— Load upside down or at an angle facing
inward. Slightly tilting items will provide better
drainage.
Pots and pans—Place upside down and at
an angle. Do not allow handles to protrude through
bottom of rack, blocking wash arm rotation. Load
large items at the sides and not across the front so
they do not block the detergent dispenser
preventing it from opening.
