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 1/4 full.

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 page 5.) 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 six 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 spot-free.
To increase the amount of rinse aid released in the
final rinse, turn the adjustment dial to the next
higher number.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot
on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as
illustrated below.
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.
ASKO dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids.
The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next
to the detergent dispenser. (See illustration on page 3.)
To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid
into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely
black. The dispenser holds about four ounces of liquid
rinse aid.
Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could
cause oversudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp
cloth. Don’t forget to replace the cap before you close
the dishwasher door.
If you have soft water, rinse aid may cause a white film
to develop on your dishes. You may not need rinse aid.
NOTE: If you use a dishwashing detergent with a
rinse aid additive, you should not fill the
rinse aid dispenser. This could cause a
film on your dishes.
