Culinary Tool Rack
The culinary tool rack is designed with 2 movable baskets to hold
extra silverware, knives and cooking utensils.
Install the baskets in this up position when you have extra
silverware and flatware to wash.
Install the baskets in this down position when you have extra
silverware, knives, or utensils requiring more room to wash.
IMPORTANT: When you are using the culinary tool baskets in the
down position, the mid level rack must also be in the lowest
position.
Remove the front basket in the down position, when you are using
the cup shelves or other tall items in the mid level rack for more
room.
Dishwasher Care
Cleaning the Dishwasher
Clean the exterior of the dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and
mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a
stainless steel cleaner is recommended.
Clean the interior of the dishwasher, with a paste of powdered
dishwasher detergent and water or use liquid dishwasher detergent
on a damp sponge to clean the cooled-down interior.
A white vinegar rinse may remove white spots and film. Vinegar is
an acid, and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe
measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through a
complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry
option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
Storing the Dishwasher
If you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months,
turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher. In the
winter, if the dishwasher could be exposed to near freezing
temperatures or is left in a seasonal dwelling such as a second
home or vacation home, avoid water damage by having your
dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.
Up position
Down position
If you have a drain air gap,
check and clean it if the
dishwasher isn't draining
well.
