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 problems, 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 spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are
spot-free. The recommended setting is „4". (Factory value is „4".) 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.
Function of Detergents
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwasher.
Most of commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. 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 were used in case of hard water often white spots appear at 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
removed completely. In this case please choose a programme with higher Temperature.
Concentrated Detergents
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher can be split in two basic types:
• conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
• low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
Detergent Tablets
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 programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using
detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
NOTE: Detergent tablets are only for the models with 3 in 1 function or 3 in 1 program.
Detergent Dispenser
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 then conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon
of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Also, 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.
