GE ZDT870SIFII - Manual (Page 20)

Place flatware in the removable silverware baskets.
Sharp objects, such as forks and knives, may be
placed with the handles facing up, in order to protect
your hands. For the best wash performance, place
other items such as spoons with the handles facing
down. Avoid allowing items to nest together, which
may keep them from being properly washed. When
loading, distribute items evenly in the basket.
The silverware baskets may also be used for small
items, such as measuring spoons, baby bottle nipples,
plastic lids, or corn cob holders. The silverware basket
covers can be closed to contain small items.
The silverware basket may be positioned by placing
the hooks on the back of the basket over the top wire
on the sides of the lower rack.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do not load large or tall utensils where they may block
the detergent dispenser, mid spray arm, or become
trapped between the door and the gasket when the
door is closed.

Silverware/flatware is loaded using the silverware basket lids. This ensures great wash performance of the
silverware. Loading in this manner prevents nesting and makes sure all items are washed uniformly.
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware
baskets may vary from your model.
