The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets
on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing
water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.
WARNING
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser
with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent).
This would damage the appliance.
Function Of The Rinse Aid And Detergent
When to refill the rinse aid dispenser
Unless the rinse-aid warning light ( ) on the control
panel is on, you can always estimate the amount from the
color of the optical level indicator located next to the cap.
When the rinse-aid container is full, the indicator will be
fully dark. The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse-
aid diminishes. You should never let the rinse aid level be
less than 1/4 full.

The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and
dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are
suitable for this purpose.
