Safety Instructions Operating Instructions GEAppliances.com Lower Rack The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers and cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and baking racks should go along the left-hand side. Load platters, pots and bowls along the sides, in corners or in the back. The soiled side of items should face the center of the rack. If necessary, oversized glasses and mugs can be placed in the lower rack to maximize loading flexibility. 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. Fold-down tines (on some models) provide flexibility for extra-large and hard-to-fit items. The tines may be left in the up position or folded down to customize the lower rack. Do not load large bowls or pots facedown in the front left-hand corner. Items loaded in this manner could prevent proper operation of the manual detergent cup. Silverware Basket To load flatware, simply push the adjustable handle to either side (on some models). Put One-piece basket (on some models) flatware in the removable basket with fork and knife handles up to protect your hands. Place spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don't nest together. Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such as measuring spoons and lids from small containers should go in the bottom of the silverware basket with the Three-piece basket (on some models) silverware on top. The one-piece silverware basket (on some Don't let any item extend through bottom. models) can be placed in the front, right side or back of the lower rack. A variety of options is available regarding the three-piece silverware basket (on some models) in your dishwasher. The complete basket is designed to fit on the right side of the lower rack. Additionally, each end of the basket is removable to add loading flexibility to accommodate flatware and lower rack capacity needs. The lids of both end and middle baskets (on some models) can be closed to contain small items. Long items can be placed on the utility shelf in the upper rack. Load flatware through the slots in the silverware basket covers. To remove end baskets, grasp the basket at opposite corners and slide apart . Troubleshooting Tips Consumer Support 15
