Proper Loading Continued Bottom rack loading Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded in the bottom rack, with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. Mixed load l Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the lower spray arm. Spray arm must move freely. . Load items so they do not block or cover the spray tower. l Securely place heavily soiled cookware face down in rack. Dish load l Place plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing inward to the spray. l Do not place items directly over spray tower. Utensil load l Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other large items at sides and back. Loading such items in front may keep water spray from reaching detergent dispenser. NOTE: l Do not load glasses, cups or plastic items in the bottom rack. l When lower rack is removed, replace with bumpers in front. Silverware basket loading Load the silverware basket while it�s in or out of the bottom rack. The loaded basket should be in the center front (over the spray tower) of the bottom rack. Load forks and spoons so they don�t nest together. Spray can�t reach nested items. Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down. Small items-baby bottle caps, jar lids, etc. can be put in any section.
Personal Injury Hazard To avoid cuts from sharp items (knives, forks, skewers, etc.), make sure these items are put in point down.
