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 patterns suggested in Figure14 (for flexible
basket A), Figure 15 (for the standard basket), and Figure 16 (for
flexible basket B).
Place knives and sharp utensils 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.
The sharp points and edges of knives and other sharp utensils
can cause serious injuries. 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.
