Use and Care Guide

Loading the Silverware Basket

The silverware basket is divided into separate compartments (illustrated below) to allow for maximum

cleaning efficiency. Spoons and forks should be placed in the basket with their handles pointing

downward. Knives and other sharp utensils should be placed in the basket with their handles pointed

upward. Longer utensils should be placed in the horizontal position on the upper basket’s cup shelf

instead of in the silverware basket.

For best results, DO NOT overload the silverware basket and be sure that similar pieces of silverware

DO NOT nest together.

1. Spoons

2. Knives

3. Salad Forks

4. Dinner Forks

5. Large Spoons

Caution: Do not let any item extend through the bottom of the cutlery basket. This may

prevent the spray arm from spinning.

Note:

• For personal safety and the highest quality wash, securely place all silverware in the

basket.

• Be sure the similar pieces of silverware do not nest together.

• Place most silverware with the handles down.

• Place knives and other potentially dangerous utensils handles-up.
