• Holds silverware and small utensils in the rack throughout wash and rinse cycles
• Keeps pieces separated and upright to improve cleaning and drying performance
• Helps prevent loose items from contacting the spray arm or falling to the tub bottom
• Replace if the basket is cracked, warped, or missing sections, or if utensils tip over or come out dirty

• No tools required: slide out the rack, lift out the old basket, and set the new basket in the same location
• Ensure the basket is seated securely and does not interfere with spray-arm rotation
• Load knives and sharp items with points down; avoid nesting spoons for best results
