Where to pour rinse aid in an Electrolux dishwasher
Service center specialists and representatives of companies producing household appliances unanimously advise using rinse aids in the dishwasher. This will significantly improve the quality of dishwashing, but you should add household chemicals carefully so as not to accidentally mix up the dispenser compartment. Where to add rinse aid in an Electrolux dishwasher and how to use it correctly - we’ll tell you everything in today’s article.
Which dispenser compartment is the rinse aid added to?
First of all, you should find the machine dispenser into which you should pour the detergent. To do this, you need to open the dishwasher and find a small plastic box on the inside of the door.
Further in it we find a plug with an arrow, which is the identification mark of the rinse aid compartment. The lid must be turned a quarter counterclockwise and removed. The rinse aid should be poured strictly along the dotted line, never overfilling the chemical. After adding about 150 milliliters of liquid, put the cap back on and screw it tightly clockwise.
If, while filling the dispenser, you accidentally spill detergent on the PMM door, it is better to wipe the rinse aid with a cloth. If this is not done, then during washing an excessive amount of foam will form in the machine, which the equipment may not be able to handle.
Rinse aid dosage
There is no need to add rinse aid yourself during washing - the equipment itself will add the chemical to the water, depending on the dosage that you have set.
The manufacturer usually sets the dosage in position 4 out of 6, that is, 4 cm3, which is quite a waste of detergent.
There is often a situation when you need to change the dosage to a strong one in order to wash away traces of mucus from dishes, or milk stains, coffee grounds, black tea residue, and so on. Or you may need to use a minimal amount of rinse aid for lightly dirty dishes. In this case, you are required to:
- turn the rinse aid dispenser cap a quarter turn counterclockwise and remove the cap;
- set the required dosage using a thin long object, for example, the tip of a teaspoon handle;
The best position for the rinse aid is considered to be 3 out of 6, which allows you to wash dishes efficiently without wasting too much detergent.
- Place the cover back and screw it securely.
Depending on the situation, determine how much chemical you need to use for each specific wash. This depends not only on the contamination of the utensils, but also on the quality of the tap water. If the water in your area is hard, you will have to use a lot of detergent. If the water is softened by a filter before entering the dishwasher, then the dispenser value can be set to the minimum.
