Before You Start

Don't prerinse. Simply scrape off any
bones or large food particles.
If connected to a food waste disposer,
make certain the disposer is empty
before starting the dishwasher.
Scrape off tomato-based food soils
(see page 8).
Remove certain foods (such as mus-
tard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, vine-
gar, salt or dressings) from stainless
steel flatware as soon as possible.
These foods may cause rusting and
pitting if allowed to remain in contact
with the surface for an extended peri-
od of time.

spray arms by not allowing items to
extend beyond the racks.

loading flexibility. Fold it down to hold long-
handled knives, spatulas and spoons or
short items like cups or juice glasses. Fold it

etc.
