Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes. That can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 110ml.
Function of Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.
Attention! Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the color of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse -aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.
- Full
- 3 / 4 full
- 1 / 2 full
- 1 / 4 full - Should refill to eliminate spotting
- Empty
- To open the dispen ser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.
- Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
- Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
NOTE : Clean up any rinse aid split during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excessive foaming during the next wash. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.
Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on "4". If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes still are not drying properly o r are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. The recommended setting is "4". (Factory value is "4".)
NOTE : Increase the dose if there are drops of water o r lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes o r a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
Function of Detergent
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are ne cessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwasher. Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
- 1.With phosphate and with chlorine
- 2.With phosphate and without chlorine
- 3.Without phosphate and without chloride
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt containe r even when the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If dete rgents without phosphate we re used in case of ha rd water often white spots appear at dishes and glasses. In this case please add mo re detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not removed completely. In this case please choo se a prog ramme with higher Temperature.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher can be split in two basic types:
- conventional, alkaline dete rgents with caustic components
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of normal washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash p rogrammes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason normal wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using intensive programmes.
Detergent Tablets
Dete rgent tablets of diffe rent brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short prog rammes. Therefore please use long programmes when using dete rgent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
NOTE : Detergent tablets are only for the models with 3 in 1 function or 3 in 1 program.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the Wash Cycle Table . Your dishwasher uses less dete rgent and rinse aid then conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly
Amount of Detergent to Use
NOTE
- If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid springs open
- Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle.
- Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.
WARNING Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.
Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
Fill in detergent
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent. The marking indicates the dosing levels , as illustrated on right:
- A The place of main wash cycle detergent placed
- B The place of pre-wash cycle detergent placed.
Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage Recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging. Close the lid and press until it locks in place. If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent chamber. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase.
NOTE
- You find information about the amount of detergent for the single programme on the last page.
- Please aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water differences are possible.
- Please observe the manufacturer's recommendations on the detergent packaging.

At the End of the Wash Cycle
When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of dishwasher will sound 8 seconds, then stop.

Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.
