For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and
silverware baskets may vary from your model.
3rd Rack
The 3rd rack is the recommended location for
silverware and has 2 trays:
(Model
ZDT985)
The utensil tray holds serving spoons, chop
sticks, spatulas, cutlery, whisks, etc. Be sure not to
overlap the utensil heads.
The silverware tray holds silverware individually
in slots and is positioned by alternating the heads
of the silverware.
These trays may be removed to allow for easier
loading and unloading, changing the side that the
trays are on, or to create extra space for the upper
rack.
To remove a tray, fully extend the 3rd rack, grasp
both the front and back handles on one tray and
gently lift the tray out of the rack. To replace the
tray, grasp both handles and gently place it on the
rack so that the deepest part is towards the center
of the rack.

unloading, or transporting
the silverware or utensil trays. The trays
may contain sharp or heavy items. If items
are dropped from the trays or the trays are
dropped, injury could occur.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Do not allow cutlery of different materials to
touch each other in the 3rd rack. Doing so may
cause discoloration of the cutlery.
The trays are only meant to be used with
a Monogram 3rd rack dishwasher to hold
silverware, cooking utensils, and other small
items. Using the trays for any other purpose
could result in damage to the trays or damage
to anything interacting with the trays.
Ensure that the 3rd rack is fully closed before
shutting the dishwasher door. Shutting the door
with the rack partially extended could cause
damage to the dishwasher.
