For best results Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mix- ture of hot, clean water and detergent against soiled surfaces of dishes. When a cycle is started, the dishwasher fills with water to about the level of the heating element.
Proper loading Always load dishes so soiled surfaces are reached by spray from rotating spray arms. Water must be able to drain off completely for best drying results. Be careful to Separate items so spray can reach all surfaces. Top rack loading CUP AND GLASS LOAD The top rack is designed for cups, glasses and smaller items.
l Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of either the upper or lower spray arm. Spray arms must move freely. l Load items so they do not block or cover the spray tower. l Securely place heavily soiled cookware face down in rack. l Place plates, soup bowls, etc.
Adding detergent The kind and amount of dishwasher detergent you use is an important part of getting your dishes clean. Read this section carefully. Use automatic dish- washer detergent only. Other detergents are too mild and much too sudsy to work in the dishwasher.
