LOADING Loading for Best Cleaning and Drying Performance 1. Angle dirtiest dish surfaces downward and allow space for water to flow up through each rack and between dishware. 3. Angle concave surfaces such as the bottom of coffee cups to allow water to drain and improve drying performance. Angled surfaces 4. Check that all spray arms spin freely before every cycle. Separating allows water flow. 2. For best silverware cleaning use the slots in the covers to keep items separated. Spray arms spin freely.
Top Rack Loading Loading Recommendations Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing them over the tines can lead to breakage and water spots. To avoid damage to your delicate items, be sure china, crystal, stemware and other similar items do not touch during dishwasher operation. Load lightweight and dishwasher-safe plastic items only in the top rack.
Bottom Rack Loading Loading Recommendations The bottom rack is best suited for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils. (See recommended loading patterns shown.) Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are secured in place. Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines. Load bowls securely between the rows of tines. Ensure that there is space between dishes so that the spray will reach all surfaces. Load heavily soiled items facing the spray.
Loading Silverware Use suggested loading patterns, as shown, to better clean your silverware. Use the slots in the covers to keep your silverware separated for optimum wash. (See illustration, right.) NOTE: If your silverware does not fit into the designated slots, flip the covers up and mix silverware types to keep them separated. Load knives down, forks up, and alternate spoons as illustrated, for best cleaning results. Load taller silverware items to the back and shorter to the front of basket.
