Hoover DDY 088T Dishwasher User Manual


 
LOADING THE RINSE AID
The rinse aid
The rinse aid, which is automatically
released during the last rinsing cycle, helps
the dishes to dry quickly and prevents
spots and stains forming.
Filling the rinse aid container
The rinse aid container can be found to the
left of the detergent container (fig. A "3").
To open the lid, push the reference mark
and, in the same time, pull the tab of
opening.
It is always advisable to use rinse aid that
is specifically designed for dishwasher.
Check the rinse aid level through the
indicator eye (C) which is located on the
dispenser.
Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6
The regulator (D) is placed under the lid
and can be turned using a coin.
The recommended position is 4.
The limestone content of the water
considerably affects the formation of
limescale and the drying performance.
It is therefore important to regulate the
quantity of rinse aid to achieve good
washing results.
If, after the wash, streaks occur on the
dishes, decrease the amount by one
position. If whitish spots occur, increase the
amount by one position.

TYPES OF DETERGENT
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different manufacturers
dissolve at different speeds, for this
reason, during short programmes, some
detergent tablets may be not fully effective,
because they are not completely dissolved.
If these products are used, is recommended
to choose longer programmes to guarantee
the complete use of the detergent.
IMPORTANT
To get satisfactory washing results,
the tablets MUST be placed in the
wash section of the detergent
container and NOT directly in the tub.
Concentrated detergents
The concentrated detergents, with reduced
alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in
conjunction with 50°C wash programmes,
have a smaller impact on the environment
and they protect the dishes and the
dishwasher. The 50°C wash programmes
purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties
of the enzymes, allowing therefore, with the
use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve
the same results of the 65°C programmes but
at a lower temperature.
Combined detergents
The detergents that also contain the rinse
aid must be placed in the wash section of
the detergent container. The rinse aid
container must be empty (if it is not empty,
set the rinse aid regulator to lowest position
before using combined detergents).
"ALL in 1" combined detergents
If you are planning to use “ALL in 1” (“3 in 1 “/
“4 in 1”/ “5 in 1”, etc.) combined detergents i.e.
those with built in salt and/or rinse agent,
we would advise the following:
read carefully and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions given on the packaging;
the effectiveness of detergents containing
the built in water softener/salt depends
on the hardness of your water supply.
Check that the hardness of your water
supply is within the effective range given
on the detergent packaging.
If when using this type of product, you
don't get satisfactory washing results,
please contact the detergent
manufacturer.
In certain circumstances use of combined
detergents can cause:
limescale deposits on dishes or in the
dishwasher;
a reduction in washing and drying
performance.
IMPORTANT
Any problems which arise as a direct
result of the use of these products
are not covered by our warranty.
Please note that using the "ALL in 1"
combined detergents, the rinse aid and
salt indicator lights (only used on
selected models) are superfluous, so you
must ignore the lights.
If washing and/or drying problems occur,
we recommend you return to use traditional
separate products (salt, detergent and
rinse agent). This will ensure that the water
softener in the dishwasher operates
correctly.
In this case, we recommends that you:
refill both the salt and rinse aid container;
run one normal washing cycle without a
load.
Please note that on return to the use of
conventional salt, a number of cycles will
be required before the system becomes
fully efficient again.
WARNING!
Some dishwasher detergents are
strongly alkaline. They can be extre-
mely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid
contact with the skin and eyes and
keep children away from the dishwa-
sher when the door is open. Check
that the detergent receptacle is empty
after completion of the wash cycle.
