Type A
To load flatware, simply push the adjustable
handle to either side (on some models).
Put flatware in the removable basket with fork
and knife handles up to protect your hands.
Place spoons in the basket with handles down.
Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest
together. Distribute evenly. Small plastic items,
such as measuring spoons and lids from small
containers should go in the bottom of the
silverware basket with the silverware on top.
This could block the wash arm and cause poor
washing results.
The one-piece silverware basket can be placed
in the front, right side or back of the lower rack.
Type B
A variety of options are available regarding the
three-piece silverware basket (on some models)
in your dishwasher. The complete basket is
designed to fit on the right side of the lower rack.
Additionally, each end of the basket is removable
to add loading flexibility to accommodate
flatware and lower rack capacity needs.
The lids of both end and middle baskets can be
opened and closed to contain small items. Long
items can be placed on the utility shelf in the
upper rack.
The standard position of your adjustable rack
is “up”, which allows for maximum clearance for
your taller items in the lower rack. If you have
taller wine glasses, tumblers or other items to
place in the upper rack, you may want to adjust
the rack to the lower position.
To lower the rack, support the weight of the rack
with your hands as shown, and press both finger
pads about 1/4″ toward the inside of the rack
as indicated, guiding the rack down to its lower
position.
To raise the rack to the “up” position, pull up on
the center of the rack side frame until the rack
locks into place.
