Rinse aid
The use of this liquid ensures thorough rinsing, spot
and streak free drying, making the water run quickly
off the dishes for sparkling results. It is automatically
added during the hot rinse. The dispenser, which is
positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse
aid, which is sufficient for 16-40 dishwashing
programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.
Filling with rinse aid
Open the container by turning the lid (A)
anticlockwise.
Add rinse aid until the container is completely full
(approx. 110 ml). The indicator (B) will be completely
dark.
Top up with rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light
on the control panel flashes (approx. 70 - 80 ml).
Remember to REFIT the lid after every refill.
Caution
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an
absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the
next wash.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained,
adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position
selector (C) (position 1 - minimum dose, position 6
maximum dose). (Start from position 3). Gradually
increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime
spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there
are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes.
Caution: Do not put liquid detergent into the rinse aid
compartment
Use of detergent
Before starting any of the dishwashing programmes,
except for the Rinse and Hold programme, load the
detergent in the dispenser.
Use only tablets, powder or liquid detergents specifi-
cally designed for domestic dishwashers.
Unsuitable detergents (such as those for washing by
hand) do not contain the right ingredients for machine
washing and hamper correct functioning of the
machine.
To open the dispenser lid, pull the catch (D).To help
you to correctly dose the right amount of detergent,
inside the container there are two reference marks:
- MIN = 15 ml
- MAX = 30 ml
All the programmes with prewash required a part of
the detergent to be poured over the dispenser’s lid as
shown in the picture.
The amount of detergent to be used varies depending
on how soiled the dishes are and the type of dishes
being washed. We recommend the amounts shown in
the programme chart (refer "Washing programmes" -
page 13).
After filling the dispenser with detergent, close
the lid.
At the end of any washing programme the lid is always
open, ready for the next wash.
Since not all detergents are the same, you should
also consult the instructions on the packet.
Remember that insufficient quantities of detergent will
produce poor washing results whereas an excessive
amount of detergent does not improve washing
results and is also wasteful.
Using no more than the correct amount of detergent
also contributes to reducing pollution.
Phosphate free detergents with enzymes
These new detergents, although welcome from an
ecological point of view, react far more susceptibly to
water hardness than conventional products.
Therefore, in order to avoid white lime deposits on
crockery and the inner tub, you should add salt in the
water softener even if the hardness of your water is
as low as 4°dH when using these new detergents.
