Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser
set on "4". If spots and poor drying are a problem, increase the amount of rinse
aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the
dishes still are not drying properly or are showing spots, adjust the dial to the next
higher level until your dishes are spot-free. The recommended setting is "4".
(Factory value is "4".) Please check the supplied model and individual adjustment
methods as they may differ from your model.
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or
knife blades.
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwas her.
Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chlorine
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
The use of normal washing programs in combination with concentrated detergents
reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programs are specifically matched
to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason
normal wash programs in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same
results that can otherwise only be achieved using intensive programs.

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some
detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short
programs. Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to
ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than
Conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for
a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the
detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not
dissolve properly.
Concentrated Detergent
Detergent Tablets
Detergent Dispenser
conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when
the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water
often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach
better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not
be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.
