REMOVABLE UTENSIL BASKET
(Design varies by model)
For best cleaning results, prevent items
from nesting together by placing some
items in the basket with handles up and
some with handles down.Load knives,han-
dles up and spoons and forks handles
down, through the slots in the hinged cov-
ered section(s) (when closed).
Be sure that thin, finely pointed items do
not extend through the basket.
This could block the lower
wash arm.
Small, lightweight items
like baby spoons and
plastic measuring spoons
should be placed in the sec-
tion(s) with the hinged
cover(s).
ODDS & ENDS BASKET
(Select models)
Use this supplemental basket in the upper
rack for loading miscellaneous items and
utensils. This is also a safe
place to load sharp
knives and
pointed
items.
SPLIT & FIT UTENSIL BASKET
(Select models)
The split silverware basket can be separated
and placed in several locations in the bot-
tom rack. Hold the basket firmly along the
sides. Follow the unlock direction arrows
imprinted on the basket and slide the basket
apart until it splits into
two. Load flatware and
utensils into both
sections or just one,
depending upon
your load.
