Model D3731 has an indicator in the display window
that displays when the rinse aid dispenser is nearly
empty. After you refill the dispenser, there may be some
delay before this indicator 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.

Only adjust the dial one number at a time.
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 up to the knob for dosage setting.
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.
