Loading Lower Rack A variety of items such as dinner plates, mixing bowls, pots and pans and baking dishes can be loaded in this rack. Tall items such as bakeware and large platters can be placed on the left side. With the StackRack™ (select models) shelf raised, thin items like cookie sheets or pizza pans may be placed along the left side. With the shelf down, two levels of glasses and cups can be loaded. Stack-Rack™ style varies by model. Positioning the FoldAway™ Tines (select models) flat in the back, left corner provides convenient loading space for large, bulky items like pots and pans or mixing bowls. Back Convertible Tines (select models) in the back, right corner can be adjusted to provide narrow spacing for loading plates or wide spacing for loading deep bowls, pots or pans. Flip tines up for narrow spacing or down for wider spacing. Back Utensil Baskets Removable Standard Utensil Basket (select models) For best cleaning results, prevent items from nesting together by placing some items in the basket with handles up and some with handles down. Load knives handles up and spoons and forks handles down, through the slots in the hinged covered section(s) (when closed). Be sure that thin, finely pointed items do not extend through the basket. This could block the lower wash arm. Small, lightweight items like baby spoons and plastic measuring spoons should be placed in the section(s) with the hinged cover(s). Split & Fit™ Utensil Basket (select models) The split silverware basket can be separated and placed in several locations in the lower rack. Load flatware and utensils into both sections or just one, depending on your load. To split the basket, hold the basket firmly along the sides. Unlock baskets as shown here. Odds & Ends Basket (select models) Use this supplemental basket in the upper rack for loading miscellaneous items and utensils. This is also a safe place to load sharp knives and pointed items.
