Loading The Top Rack; Loading The Bottom Rack - Whirlpool DU960 Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Loading the Top Rack

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items.
(See recommended loading patterns shown.)
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
Cup and glass load
Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and
draining.
Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not
designed for glasses. Damage can occur.
Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing
them over the tines can lead to breakage.
China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each
other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.
Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items
marked "dishwasher safe" are recommended.
Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move
them during the cycle.
To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the
top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.
Extra-capacity fold-down shelves
Fold down the extra shelf on the right side of the top rack to hold
additional cups, or long items such as utensils and spatulas.

Adjustable top rack
You can raise or lower the top rack to fit tall items in either the top
or bottom rack. One adjuster is located on each side of the top
rack.
To adjust the top rack
1. Hold the top rack with one hand near the adjuster.
2. With the other hand, turn the knob clockwise to raise a side
of the rack.
3. Turn the knob counterclockwise to lower a side of the rack.
Repeat the steps for the remaining adjuster as needed. The 2
adjusters can be turned separately or together to raise or lower
the top rack. The top rack does not have to be level.

Loading the Bottom Rack

The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and
utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded
with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See
recommended loading patterns shown.)
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the bottom
rack. Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are
secured in place.
Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines and facing
inward to the spray.
Overlap the edges of plates for large loads.
