GENT DISPENSER DETER DETER GENT DISPENSER ASKO dishwashers are designed to be energy efficient. Because the machine uses less water than conventional dishwashers, you also use less detergent and rinse aid. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. The amount of detergent needed for your dishes, however, could be more, depending on the hardness of the water in your area.
It also improves drying by allowing water to “sheet” off the dishes. ASKO dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. (See illustration on page 3.)
ANEL ANEL Your ASKO dishwasher has a button-operated control panel, as illustrated below. To select a wash program or option, simply press the appropriate button. After you have selected the desired wash program and options, press Start/ Power button (on the top side of the control panel)
CARE AND CLEANING CARE AND CLEANING CARE AND CLEANING The interior of your ASKO dishwasher is made of surgical quality stainless steel that has been electro- polished to make it the smoothest surface available. The smooth surface prohibits the accumulation of dirt and bacteria inside the unit.
CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP On occasion something may get through the filters and into the drain pump. The drain pumps on ASKO dishwashers are designed to automatically reverse if anything should get caught in the propellers, thus ejecting the item back into the sump area or down the drain.
