Preparing Your Dishwasher
RINSE AID
Rinse aid is released during the dishwasher's final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes,
which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher
has been designed to use liquid rinse aids.
WARNING!
Only use branded rinse aid suitable for use in dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any
other substances (i.e. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance and void
the Manufacturer's Warranty.
If the rinse-aid indicator light is illuminated (
) on the control panel, then you will need to refill the dispenser,
following the instructions below. You can always estimate the amount of rinse-aid within the reservoir from the
colour of the optical level indicator located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid reservoir is full, the indicator will
be fully dark. The size of the dark dot decreases as the rinse-aid diminishes. You should never let the rinse aid level
be less than 1/4 full.

Tip! A common complaint for all dishwashers is that dishes are coming out wet after completing its program.
Rinse aid will greatly improve drying results, but there are a number of factors which can effect drying
performance, including the crockery items you are washing. Refer to the Dishwasher Drying Tips for some more
guidelines around this topic.
FILLING THE RINSE-AID DISPENSER
Step 1 Remove the Rinse-aid dispenser cap by screwing it in an anti-clockwise direction. Refer to Figure 9.
