FILLING WITH RINSE AID AND SETTING THE CONSUMPTION
Rinse aid is used to prevent traces of water droplets being left on the clean dishes. It also increases the drying performance, since the
water drains off more easily. Only use rinse aid which is designed for use in dishwashers.
• The rinse aid reservoir is located on the inside of the door, alongside the detergent reservoir.
• Unscrew the cap of the rinse aid reservoir (1).
• Fill the rinse aid reservoir until the rinse aid level indicator turn dark (2). Replace the cap and make sure it lines up with the indication
marks.
• By checking the rinse aid level indicator you can see whether or not the dishwasher needs rinse aid. A dark indicator (b) means
there is rinse aid in the compartment. A light indicator (a) shows you need to refill the reservoir with rinse aid.
• The rinse aid level can be adjusted between the setting 1 and 6. The factory setting for rinse aid is level 3. Unscrew the cap and use
a large screwdriver to set the correct level (3). You need to increase the level of rinse aid when water stains form on your dishes
after a wash program. Decrease it when strips or blue stains form on the dishes. Keep adjusting the level until the dishes are streak-
free when you take them out of the dishwasher.

Attention!
• Refill the rinse aid reservoir when the rinse aid indicator lights up.
• Do not overfill the rinse aid reservoir. The reservoir will overflow.
• Spilled rinse aid must be cleaned up. Otherwise they may lead to leakage as a result of extreme foaming.
