RINSE AID DISPENSER
Eurotech dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids in hard water areas. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser.
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to “sheet” off the dishes.
To fill the rinse aid dispenser, follow the steps below.
1.Open the dispenser by turning the cap to the left then lift it out.
2.The dispenser holds about four ounces of liquid rinse aid. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black, being careful not to overfill. (Overfilling could cause the dishwasher to oversuds.)
3.Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth.
4.Replace the cap by turning it to the right until it stops. It’s a good idea to give the cap a tug to make sure it’s secure.
If you have soft water, rinse aid may cause a white film to develop on your dishes. If this happens, you may not need rinse aid.
ADJUSTING THE AMOUNT OF RINSE AID DISPENSED
A measured amount of rinse aid is released during the final rinse. As with detergent, the amount of rinse aid needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. (See previous page.) Too much rinse aid can result in lather or foaming and cause cloudiness or streaks on your dishes. If the water in your area is very soft, you may not need rinse aid. If you do, you can dilute the rinse aid with an equal amount of water.
The rinse aid dispenser has four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on “1.” If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to ”2.” If the dishes still aren’t drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are
WHEN TO REFILL THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
The black dot on the rinse aid dispenser indicates the amount of rinse aid in the dispenser. As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below
RINSE AID INDICATOR LIGHT
Models EDW254E, EDW274E, and EDW294E have a rinse aid indicator light on the control panel that comes on when the dispenser is empty. After you refill the dispenser, the light will continue to glow until the program is complete.
