adding rinse aid.
• Corrosion has occurred on glass due to soft water. >>> Measure the hardness of the
supply water appropriately and check the water hardness setting. If your supply water is
soft (<5 dH), do not use salt. Choose programmes that wash in higher temperatures (e.g.

aid is not spilled in the machine when you are filling it. Clean any spilled rinse ait with the

reservoir is closed after adding rinse aid.
