Setting The Rinse Aid Dosage; Adding Detergent Before Every Programme - AEG OKO FAVORIT 645 Operating Instructions Manual

Adjusting the rinse aid dosage
The adjuster to alter the quantity of rinse aid
being dispensed is located in the filler neck
(fig. 9). The quantity can be varied from 1-6cc
and the corresponding numbers are shown
on the adjuster.
To alter the setting, move the arrow to another
setting using a screwdriver or coin.
The machine is set to dispense 3 cc rinse aid
(arrow is set to "3") automatically during the
final rinse. Do not alter the setting unless it
becomes necessary (see page 17/18 "If you
think your machine is not working
properly...").
Add dishwasher detergent before every wash programme
Before you start a wash programme (except
rinse and hold programme) fill detergent
dispenser with detergent (fig. 2/D). If the
dispenser is closed, push the locking catch
(fig. 10/a) and the lid springs open. The
amount of detergent to use depends on the
degree of soiling of the utensils to be washed.
For light soiling you will require approx.
20 ml, for normal to heavy soiling approx.
30 ml. When using liquid detergents use
approx. 30 ml and 40 ml respectively. To help
you use the correct amount of detergent the
dispenser is marked "Min" (approx. 20 ml) and
"Max" (approx. 30 ml) (fig. 11). Close the lid of
the dispenser and press until it snaps shut.
The detergent is automatically dispensed at
the correct stage of the programme.
We would recommend filling the compartment
in the lid (fig. 10/b) level to the top with deter¬
gent for all programmes which include a pre-
As effectiveness of detergents differs from
one make to another, follow also the recom¬
mendations of the detergent manufacturers.
Useful hints:
The "Min" and "Max" markings in the deter¬
gent dispenser apply to full loads which is the
most economical way of machine washing.
If you want to wash smaller loads, 15 ml of
detergent (approx. 25 ml liquid detergent) is
sufficient to obtain an excellent wash result
Important!
• Only use detergents for domestic dish¬
washers. Never use washing up liquids
(they cause excessive foaming and the
dishes are not cleaned).
• Always close the detergent pack and store
in a dry place (lumpy detergent has lost
its cleaning power).
• Always use the recommended amount of
detergent.
If you use too little, starch deposits will
remain on the dishes which can only be
rubbed off by hand.
There are two types of dishwasher detergents
on the market, the conventional type and the
ultra compact cleaners.
When using an ultra compact cleaner we
recommend you select a BIO 50 X pro¬
gramme. This BIO programme was specially
developed for the compact cleaners.
The cleaning effect of the Universal BIO 50X
or the Economy 50 X BIO programme using
ultra compact cleaners can be compared to
using the Universal 65 X or Economy 65 X
programme with conventional detergents. The
BIO programme has the added benefit that
your crockery is treated in a gentler fashion
due to the lower wash temperature and the
absence of corrosive substances.
