Loading the bottom rack
Load items with cooked-on or dried-on food
in the bottom rack, with soiled surfaces
facing inward to the spray.
Mixed load
Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between
prongs and facing inward to the spray.
Make sure pot handles and other items do
not stop rotation of the spray arms. Spray
arms must move freely.
Load items so they do not block or cover
the spray tower.
Load heavily soiled cookware face down
in the rack.
Do not stack or overlap dishes. Water
spray must reach all soiled surfaces for
best results.
Utensil load
Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other
large items at sides and back. Loading
such items in front may keep water spray
from reaching detergent dispenser and
silverware basket.
NOTES:
Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items
in the bottom rack.
Do not load items between the bottom rack
and the side of the dishwasher tub. This
can block the water inlet opening.
If you have removed the bottom rack for
unloading or cleaning, replace it with
bumpers in front.
Fold-down divider
Use the fold-down divider at the back of
the rack to make room for deep bowls,
roasters, etc.
Mixed load
Do not cover spray tower
Utensil load
Bumpers must
face dishwasher door
