English Cutlery Basket Cutlery, small kitchen utensils and some plastic lids are best placed into the cutlery basket. NOTE: The standard plate is 10 1/4 inches. For ease of loading/ unloading large size dinner plates from the dish rack, it may be necessary to (temporarily) remove the cutlery basket. When loading/ unloading is complete, return the cutlery basket to its original position. How to load items: • Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal. • Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries • Do not load plastic items unless they are marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations. • Cups, glasses and bowls must have their openings facing downwards • Do not load glasses over the dish rack pins. Glasses loaded over dish rack pins are not properly supported and are likely to get damaged. • Arrange all items with recessed or curved sections on a slant to drain water away. • Ensure cutlery are not nesting or stuck together. They need to be evenly spread out. Make sure the cutlery has not fallen through the basket and stopped the spray arm from rotating. • tems with wooden or bone handles and items joined together with glue are unsuitable as they cannot withstand hot water. Warning! To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to operate or play with the dishwasher. Using the Right Detergent Hard water and How much Detergent Should You Use Follow the detergent manufacturer's guidelines. The amount of detergent can depend if your water is 'hard' or 'soft'. Put the detegent into the pocket on the inner door. It will hold approximately 1/2 Oz. of detergent. Follow the detergent manufacturer's guidlines for further assistance. The pocket for detergent HARD WATER REQUIRES MORE DETERGENT TO GET DISHES CLEAN. SOFT WATER REQUIRES LESS DETERGENT TO GET DISHES CLEAN. 13
