Using a Rinsing Agent You can help prevent unsightly spots on dishes and glassware and reduce drying time by using a rinse agent. A rinse agent is specially formulated to rinse away food and detergent residues that can be left behind on your dishes. Used regularly, a rinse agent will automatically provide you with cleaner dishes every time you wash.
Page 11
IMPORTANT! When the “Eco” feature is activated, drying time for the dishes will be increased. The dishes dry by a “convection” method only. To speed-up the drying time, suggest you leave the dishwasher door partially open after the program is complete. This will allow humidity from within to escape.

External cleaning To clean the external surfaces use a soft damp cloth with mild detergent. Do not use abrasive powders, solvents, etc. as this will ruin both the painted and synthetic surfaces. NOTE: At the beginning of each cycle, the dishwasher always starts in the “drain” mode.
