Prepare and Load the Dishwasher
10-place load - upper rack
12-place load - upper rack
IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard
items from dishes. Remove labels from containers before washing.
Make sure that, when dishwasher door is closed, no items are
blocking detergent dispenser.
Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and
inward to the spray as shown in the graphics above. This will
improve cleaning and drying results. Angle dirtiest dish surface
downward, allowing space for water to flow up through rack and
between dishes.
Avoid overlapping items like bowls or plates that may trap food.
Place plastics, small plates and glasses in upper rack.
Wash only items marked "dishwasher safe."
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation: Load dishes
so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight load items
are secured in racks.
Use slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns to keep
your silverware separated for optimum wash. See the complete
online User Guide for detailed illustrations.
If your silverware does not fit into the designated slots, push
tabs inward on either end of the slotted cover and lift it off of the
silverware basket. Always place sharp items pointed down and
avoid "nesting" of spoons and forks.

not block the upper or lower spray
arms.

Add Detergent
NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse cycle.
Do not use detergent.
Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just
before starting a cycle.
Fresh automatic dishwasher
detergent results in better
cleaning. Store tightly closed
detergent container in a cool,
dry place.
Detergents
Many detergents now come in several
forms (gel packs, tablets, or powder
packs).
We recommend tablets and packs for
convenience and improved
performance. Quality tablets and packs have been proven better than
powder, liquid or gel detergents at reducing filming on dishes. Using
tablets and packs over time will start to reduce or eliminate white film.
Also, by using a rinse aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white film.
These forms are suitable for all hardness and soil levels. Always place
detergents in the main compartment and slide lid to close.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types. See the online user guide for more
information on powder, liquid and gel usage.
To close lid
Place selected detergent in
the dispenser. Place finger,
as shown, and slide lid closed.
Press firmly until it clicks.
