Silverware Basket
Place flatware in the removable silverware and
accessory baskets (on some models). Sharp objects,
such as forks and knives, may be placed with the
handles facing up, in order to protect your hands.
For the best wash performance, place other items
such as spoons with the handles facing down. Avoid
allowing items to nest together, which may keep
them from being properly washed. When loading,
distribute items evenly in the basket.
The silverware and accessory baskets (on some
models) may also be used for small items, such as
measuring spoons, baby bottle nipples, plastic lids,
or corn cob holders. The silverware basket covers (on
some models) can be closed to contain small items.
The door mounted silverware basket (on some
models) may be positioned either on the door by
securing the basket to the door using the two
mounting bosses, or to the rack by securing the
basket to the rack using the wire loop on the front of
the lower rack to engage the tabs on the rear of the
basket.

The accessory basket (on some models) may be
positioned by placing the hooks on the back of the
basket over the top wire on the sides of the lower
rack.
The FlexBaskets (on some models) may be positioned
on the front of either the upper or lower racks.
Secure the basket to the rack using the wire loop on
the front of the upper and lower racks to engage the
tabs on the rear of the basket.
Do not load large or tall utensils where they may
block the detergent dispenser or become trapped
between the door and the gasket when the door is
closed.
