(See recommended loading patterns shown.)
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
Cup and glass load
Mixed load
■ Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and
draining.
■ Load glasses and cups in top rack only. The bottom rack is
not designed for glasses and cups. Damage can occur.
■
Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing
them over the tines can lead to breakage and water spots.
■
To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
■ China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each
other during dishwasher operation. Damage can occur.
■
Wedge lightweight items against one another or overlap them
with heavier dishes.

plastic items marked “dishwasher safe.”

Fold down the extra shelf on the top rack to hold additional cups,
or long items such as utensils and spatulas.

The light-item clips hold lightweight plastic items like cups, lids,
or bowls in place during washing. You can move a clip anywhere
in the rack.
To move a clip
1. Pull the clip up and off the tine.
2. Reposition the clip on another tine.
Fold-down tines (on some models)
Fold the tines in the top rack all the way down to accommodate
larger items.
