Rinse Aids - Viking DFUD042 Use And Care Manual

RINSE AIDS

A rinse aid causes water to flow off the dishes quicker, preventing droplets that dry as spots and making drying
performance better. Rinse aids come in solid and liquid forms. Your dishwasher's rinse aid dispenser uses the liquid
form. For the best results, use a liquid rinse aid only if you have moderately hard to hard water. Rinse aids used with
soft water can cause a cloudy film on dishes.
FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
Drying will usually be better if you use a rinse aid. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the
dispenser up to the knob for dosage setting. The dispenser will hold approximately four ounces of liquid rinse aid.
ADJUSTING THE DOSAGE OF RINSE AID
The rinse aid dosage is set by the manufacturer and
is dispensed automatically into the final rinse. If
necessary, the rinse aid dosage can be adjusted by
inserting a screwdriver inside the filler hole where
the adjustment device is set on "1". It is
recommended that the dial is only adjusted one
number at a time. N N O O T T E E : : Too much rinse aid is not
advisable as this might result in the formation of
foam, especially if the dishwasher is connected to
cold water supply.
N N O O T T E E : : The dishwasher has an indicator on the control panel that displays when the rinse aid dispenser is almost
empty. After refilling the dispenser, there may be a small delay before the indicator goes out.
