Operation Rack Adjustments The Lower Rack The lower rack is best for dinner plates, smaller plates, serving plates, larger bowls, pots, and pans. • Securely place heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack. Fold-Down Tines • Use the fold-down tines to provide space for large items such as pots and pans. • Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of lower wash arm by hanging below the rack. The Upper Rack The upper rack is best for glasses, cups, bowls, small plates, and saucers and can accomodate full sized plates up to 10-1/4". • Make sure small plastic items are held firmly in place with Hold Tight™ dividers. • Arrange stemware Stemware Cradle (450E models) between prongs of stemware cradle so that the stemware cannot move easily. • Make sure items hanging below the rack do not block the rotation of the wash arm. 18 Two-Piece Silverware Basket (450E models) The silverware basket is designed with flexibility in mind. It can be positioned on the lower rack and also in the upper rack. The design also allows the basket to be divided into two separate, smaller baskets for additional loading options. 1 Grasp the basket as shown and push the two halves in opposite directions to release the locking tabs. 2 Repeat step 1 on opposite end of basket. 3 Pull the two halves apart. 19 Operation
