Adding rinsing aid
Rinsing aid compartment

The rinsing aid is released during the last rinse so that water drops do not remain on your dishes causing
stains. It also improves drying due to the fact that all the water fl ows off the dishes. Your dishwasher is
designed to only be used with a liquid rinsing aid. The rinsing aid compartment is located on the inside
wall of the door next to the dishwashing detergent compartment.

Fill up the compartment by opening it and pouring in the rinsing aid until the indicator goes completely
dark. The capacity of the rinsing aid compartment is approximately 110 ml.
NOTE:
Use only branded dishwasher rinsing aids. Never pour other mixtures (such as liquid detergents, etc.)
into the rinsing aid compartment. Otherwise the dishwasher may be damaged.
When should the rinsing aid be refi lled?
If the rinsing aid compartment is empty, the relevant indicator light on the control panel will turn on indicating
the need to add rinsing aid. After fi lling the compartment with rinsing aid the entire indicator is dark. As the
rinsing aid is gradually used up the point of the indicator becomes smaller. Never allow the amount of rinsing
aid to fall below 1/4 of the compartment volume.
CAUTION
Wipe any spilled rinsing aid with a wiping cloth, so that excessive suds are not formed in the
following wash. Do not forget to put the lid back on before closing the dishwasher door.
Setting dial (rinse)
The rinsing aid compartment has six diff erent settings. Its factory level setting is 3. If stains form on the dishes
or if there is a problem with drying the dishes, increase the released amount of the rinsing aid by removing
the lid and turning the dial to "4". If despite this step the dishes are not without stains after drying, adjust the
setting again to a higher level until the dishes are clean after drying. If rinsing aid residues remain on the
dishes, reduce the level to 1 – 2. The recommended setting is "3". (The value set by the manufacturer is "3".)
NOTE:
If there are water drops or scale stains on the dishes after the wash, increase the dosage. If there are
white stains or blueish layers on glasses or knife blades, lower the dosage.
