PREPARING AND LOADING DISHES
Loading the Silverware Basket
Adding a Dish
To add or remove items after wash cycle starts:
• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until wash
action stops before opening.
• Add the item and wait a few seconds to allow cold air
to slowly expand inside dishwasher.
• Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.
Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar lids, corn cob
holders, etc., in a covered section. Close the cover to
hold small items in place.
Use suggested loading patterns, as shown, to increase
washability of your silverware.
Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom of
basket or rack to block the spray arm.
Do not mix silver and stainless to avoid damaging the
silver finish.
The silverware basket can be separated and placed in
several locations in the bottom rack. Load silverware in
all sections or just one, depending on your load.
Load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.)
pointing down.
Failure to do so may result in injury.
CAUTION
Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket
may vary from your model.
Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack or
take the basket out for loading on a counter or table.
When covers are up, mix items in each section of the
basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid
nesting. Water spray cannot reach nested items.
Filling the Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has one covered and one
uncovered cup. Detergent in the uncovered cup falls into
the dishwasher when the door is closed. The covered
cup opens automatically to release detergent.
• Use only fresh automatic dishwashing detergent.
Other detergents will cause oversudsing.
• If detergent packs or tabs do not fully dissolve at the
end of the cycle, place pack or tab directly on the
bottom of the dishwasher and close the dispenser
cover.
• When using automatic dishwashing detergent tabs,
place one tab in main wash cup and close.
• Add detergent just before starting cycle.
• Store detergent in a cool, dry location. Moist
or caked detergent will not dissolve properly.
