Function of The Rinse Aid And Detergent
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.
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.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes,
as illustrated below.
