Make sure dishes are properly loaded to insure that
water can reach the soiled surfaces. The wash arm
in the bottom sprays water up. The tower that rises
in the center sends water out over the dishes to wash
the items in the upper rack. A spray arm in the top
washes down also. Make sure to place tall items to
the outside so the upper wash arm is not blocked.
WATCH OUT FOR THIS.
The wash tower rises through the center of the bottom
rack during the wash and rinse portions of the cycle.
Don’t block it or load tall things next to it. Also, be
careful not to let a portion of an item such as a pot or
dish handle extend through the bottom rack. This could
block the wash arm and cause poor washing results.
HOW TO
THE TOP RACK
Sauce pans, mixing bowls and other small items may
be placed face down in the top rack. The top rack is
handy for
kinds of odd shapes. Be sure the force
of water and detergent can reach soiled surfaces.

The top rack is best for glasses, cups and saucers.
Cups and glasses fit best along the sides. This is the
place for dishwasher-safe plastics, too. Make sure
plastic items are lodged in tightly so they can’t
fall onto the
heating element. Arrange
stemware so that they cannot move easily. Don’t
let the glasses touch each other.
