s Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines and facing inward to the spray. s Overlap the edges of plates for large loads. s Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls securely between the rows of tines. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces. NOTES: s Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each other during washing. s Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately. Style 2 (on some models) Models with ANYWARE™ silverware basket To open the silverware basket Unlock the latch. Utensil load s Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser and silverware basket. s Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack. s Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely. s Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of the dishwasher tub because they might block the water inlet opening. NOTE: If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front. Loading Silverware Basket Load the silverware basket while it is in the dishwasher or take the basket out for loading on a counter or table. NOTE: Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets onto the silverware. Style 1 (on some models) Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items. NOTE: Be sure the cover is completely latched before pulling out the bottom rack and before closing the dishwasher door. s Place small items such as baby bottle caps, jar lids, corncob holders, etc., in the section(s) with hinged cover(s). Close the cover to hold small items in place. s Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items. IMPORTANT: Always load items (knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down. s The silverware basket can be hung on the door or on the bottom rack (see illustration). The silverware basket can also be placed inside the bottom rack. IMPORTANT: Always load items (knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down. 11
