Additional Tips

Upper Rack Loading Tips

• Place cups and glasses in the rows between the rack tines. Placing them over the rack tines can lead to breakage and water spots.
• To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
• Place items so that the open end faces down for cleaning and drying.
• Do not stack items on top of each other.
• Use the upper rack for small or delicate items such as small plates, cups, saucers, glasses, and dishwasher-safe plastic items.
• Cups, glasses, and bowls must be positioned upside down.
• Make sure items do not interfere with the rotation of the spray arms above and below the upper rack.
• When loading larger items in the upper rack, such as wine glasses or taller cups, it may be necessary to remove the cutlery rack if one is present. (For models with cutlery rack)
