Be careful to Separate items so spray can reach all surfaces. Top rack loading IP 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, sour3 bowls, etc.
