Switching off rinse aid refill
indicator
If the use of combined detergents with a rinse aid
component impairs the low rinse aid indicator H on
the control panel (enough rinse aid for x rinse cycles),
the displays can be switched off.
Proceed as described under "Setting amount of rinse
aid" and select setting 0.
NOTICE: Using no rinse aid or setting the dispenser
to 0 may result in longer cycle times consuming more
energy and water. The higher temperatures can damage
fine china or glassware.
