Always load sharp utensils with the sharp point down!
For the best washing effect, please load the baskets according to
standard loading options on the last section of PART I: Generic

Rinse Aid and Detergent
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from
forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks.
It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. This
dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.
WARNING
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid
dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning
agent, liquid detergent), as this would damage the appliance.

reservoir cap by rotating it
counterclockwise
NOTE:
Clean up any spilled rinse aid with an absorbent cloth to avoid
excessive foaming during the next wash.
3. Close the rinse aid reservoir cap by rotating it clockwise.
Adjusting the Rinse Aid Reservoir
Turn the rinse aid indicator dial to a number between
1 and 6. The higher the number, the more rinse
aid the dishwasher uses. If dishes are not drying
properly or have spots, adjust the dial to the next
higher number until they are spot-free. Reduce it if
there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a
bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
