Thermador DW44ZW, DW44ZP, DW44ZSB manual Adding Rinse Agent

Rinse Agent

Rinse agent or a rinse aid is used to provide optimum drying results and diminish water spotting. Always use a rinse agent with the Thermador dishwasher to insure proper drying results. It rinses the dishware and also rinses the internal parts of the dishwasher.

To Fill the Rinse Agent Reservoir:

1.Open the dishwasher door fully.

2.Open the cover of the rinse agent dispenser by pressing the star on the cover with your index finger while pulling on the tab with your thumb.

3.Add rinse agent to the reservoir until the level indicator turns dark, indicating that the reservoir is full (capacity is approx. 3.5 oz.).

Rinse Agent Dispenser Regulator

The rinse agent reservoir of theThermador dishwasher is provided with a regulator calibrated from 1 to 6. (See Figure 15.) This regulator controls the amount of rinse agent dispensed. The dishwasher leaves the factory preset to 4. However,

•if you see streaks, you should turn the regulator to a lower number.

•if you see water spots, you should turn the regulator to a higher number.

Rinse Agent Indicator Light

An additional rinse aid indicator light is on the control panel. When the rinse agent dispenser is empty, the indicator light will glow and the level indicator will show a silver background with black lines.

After filling the rinse agent dispenser, close the door and wait a few minutes for the indicator light to regis- ter.

NOTE: Refill rinse agent when the level indicator shows a silver back- ground with black lines.
