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.

This model has an indicator on the control panel that
displays when the rinse aid dispenser is nearly empty
(see page 8). After you refill the dispenser, there may be
some delay before this indicator light goes out.
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.
