Lower Rack
When loading the lower rack, do not load large platters or
trays in the front right corner. They may prevent detergent
from circulating during the wash cycle.
The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers, and
cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and
racks should go along the sides. Load platters, pots
and bowls along the sides, in corners, or in the
back. The soiled side of items should face the
center of the rack.
Silverware Basket
Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and
knife handles up to protect your hands. Place
spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix
knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest
together. Distribute evenly. Small plastic items,
such as measuring spoons and lids from small
containers, should go in the bottom of the
silverware basket with silverware on top.
To increase the flexibility of the lower rack, the
silverware basket may be split. Grasp the basket at
opposite corners and slide apart. The basket
sections should be placed in the lower rack by
hanging them on the top hoop.
The accessory basket
can hold small items such as:
baby bottle nipples, plastic lids, corn cob holders,
etc.
It can hang from the top hoop of the upper rack
along the right side or it can also hang on the right or
left side of the lower rack. When hanging the
accessory
basket on the right side in the upper rack, make sure the
top is closed and nothing is sticking out.
Don’t let any
item extend
through bottom.

A cover can be lowered to either side
to secure lightweight items from the
effects of the vigorous wash action.
