Rinse conditioner dispenser (1)
Use of a rinse conditioner will result in cleaner and
faster drying of the load, since it helps water and soil to
run off. Too much conditioner may result in streakiness,
too little may cause white spots. The dispenser holds
about 140 ml. This is enough for 40-70 wash cycles,
depending on the dosage setting. When the rinse
conditioner level is approaching the bottom of the
scale it is time to refill the dispenser. Swivel out the
filler trough and carefully fill up with rinse conditioner
until the level reaches the red mark on the level indi-
cator tube. Do not overfill and carefully wipe off any
spillage to prevent sudsing problems. Don't forget the
close the filler trough afterwards. Adjust the dosage
setting according to the hardness of the water.
Begin with the lowest dosage setting and increase
as necessary by turning the arrow clockwise.
Note! Do not fill the rinse conditioner dispenser with
liquid detergent.
Spray arm (2)
It is important to keep all the holes in the spray arm
clear. A clogged hole can seriously affect washing
efficiency. If the spray arm needs cleaning, unscrew
the nut clockwise (left-hand thread) and lift off the
spray arm. Clear the holes and shake out any food
remnants.
Coarse strainer (3)
The purpose of the coarse strainer is to catch large
objects such as toothpicks and pieces of eggshell.
Make sure that the strainer is always clean. Lift it out
and rinse it under running water whenever necessary.
Fine filter (4)
It is just as important to keep this filter clean. A dirty
or clogged filter will always impair washing efficiency.
The fine filter can easily be lifted out for cleaning
when you have removed the coarse strainer.
Detergent dispenser (5)
For a normal load pour about 1-2 tablespoons of
detergent into the detergent dispenser.
