Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure water
does not cling and leave marks on
crockery during the drying phase and
helps crockery dry faster after it has
been washed.
Rinse aid is poured into the storage
reservoir and the amount set is
dispensed automatically.
,
Inadvertently filling the rinse aid
reservoir with powder or liquid
detergent always causes serious
damage to the reservoir. Only pour
rinse aid formulated for domestic
dishwashers into the reservoir.
Miele branded rinse aid is available
from the Miele Spare Parts
Department or via the internet at
www.miele-shop.com.
Alternatively, it is possible to use
– Household vinegar with a max. 5%
acid content
or
– Liquid citric acid up to 10% acid
content.
The resulting rinsing and drying
quality will not, however, be as good
as when rinse aid is used.
,
Do not use vinegar with a higher
acid content (e.g. vinegar essence
25% acid). This would damage the
dishwasher.
If you only ever use "2 in 1", "3 in 1"
or "4 in 1" products in your
dishwasher, you do not need to add
rinse aid.
Adding rinse aid
