The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate
and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and
tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls
and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they will
not get moved by the spray of water.
We suggest that you place large items and the most
difficult to clean items are to be placed into the lower
basket: such as pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and
bowls, as shown in the figure below. It is preferable to
place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks
in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray
arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc, must always be placed top down.
Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow out.
Please be reminded that:
The Bottom Basket features folding spikes so that larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.
For better stacking of pots and pans,
the spikes can be folded down as
show in the picture right.

Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket with the handles at the bottom. If the rack has side baskets, the
spoons should be loaded separately into the appropriate slots, especially long utensils should be placed in the
horizontal position at the front of the upper basket as shown in the picture.
Do not let any item extend through the bottom.
Always load sharp utensils with the sharp
point down!
