    Rinse Aid Dispenser The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. Always start with the dispenser set on "4". If spots and poor drying are a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser cover and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes still aren’t drying properly or have spots on them, adjust the dial to the next higher lever until your dishes are spot-free.
  • Page 17 Detergent Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is only 7*clarke. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water often white spots appear on dishes and glasses.
