Your dishwasher is equipped with an adjustable rinse aid and salt container. Using individual detergents,
Note on chemicals used by the dishwasher
rinse aid and salt will give the best possible results as this will give the correct dosage of each chemical to
suit your needs. Using Two-in-One or Three-in-One tablets may not give the best results when used in
your appliance, and may not be suitable for the type of water supply in your home, as they contain predetermined quantities of salt, rinse aid and detergent and cannot be adjusted to the individual
requirements.
If you are going to use 3-in-1 (or 2-in-1) tablets, we suggest that you contact the manufacturer before use
or if you experience poor results in the wash performance and ask for assistance from them.

ADJUSTING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
•
As with detergent, the amount of rinse
aid needed for your dishes depends on
the hardness of the water in your area.
Too much rinse aid can result in
foaming and cause cloudiness or
streaks on your dishes. If your water
is very soft, you may not need rinse
aid. You can always dilute the rinse
aid with an equal amount of water.
The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. ALWAYS START WITH THE DISPENSER SET ON “1”. IF SPOTS & POOR

ADJUST THE DIAL TO THE NEXT HIGHER NUMBER UNTIL YOUR DISHES ARE SPOT-FREE.
