Loading the Silverware Basket
NOTE: The silverware basket tops can be folded up to accommodate large or oddly-shaped
items.
With the silverware basket tops down, load the silverware basket following the pattern
suggested in Figure 9. Place knives with their handles up, and forks and spoons with their
handles down.
If large or oddly-shaped items are to be loaded into the silverware basket with the tops up,
load the items so that they do not nest together. Load knives and sharp utensils with their
handles up.
CAUTION
The sharp points and edges of knives and other sharp utensils can cause serious inju-
ries. Load knives and other sharp utensils with sharp points and edges down. Do not
allow children to handle or play near knives and sharp utensils.
The Flexible Silverware Basket
This basket is designed for maximum versatility. The basket splits along its length, resulting
in two halves that may be placed in a variety of positions in the lower rack, greatly increasing
the lower rack's loading versatility.
To split the Flexible Silverware Basket:
1. Grasp the basket as shown in Figure 10A, and slide the two halves in opposite
directions, as shown in Figure 10A.
2. Pull the two halves apart, as shown in Figure 10B.
Some suggestions for placing the two halves in the lower rack are shown in Figure 11.
