Asko D1716 Quick Setup Guide

1.

Load the dishwasher. (There’s no need to pre-rinse. Simply scrape off large food particles before
you load the dishware.)

2.

After you’ve pushed the baskets back inside the unit, manually rotate the upper and lower spray
arms to be sure they turn freely. Rearrange any item that blocks the wash arms.

3.

Make sure there is rinse aid in the dispenser. Add rinse aid, if needed.

4.

Add automatic dishwashing detergent and close the dispenser cover. (See “Amount of Dishwashing
Detergent to Use” on the other side of this Quick Start Guide.)

5.

Close the door securely. (You should hear it click shut.)

6.

Set the Temp and Heated dry options as desired.

7.

Turn the control knob to the desired program. The dishwasher will start.

Don’t pre-rinse. Simply scrape off large food particles before you load the dishes.

Avoid using Heat dry. (You can speed up the drying process by opening the door slightly to release the moist air.)

1)

Where do I put the prewash detergent?

2)

Where do I put the rinse aid?

3)

Why does my dishwasher run so long?

4)

Why am I getting a white film on my dishes?

5)

Why is there always water left in the bottom of my
machine?

1)

The prewash detergent goes in the small compartment between
the main wash detergent compartment and the rinse aid
dispenser. (See page 4.)

2)

The rinse aid goes into the rinse aid dispenser. (See page 5.)

3)

If the temperature of the water entering your dishwasher is below
120°, the dishwasher runs longer because it heats the water to
the proper temperature for the program selected. Raising your
water heater setting may help shorten the cycle times. If this
doesn’t resolve the problem, call the ASKO Advisory Center.

4)

You may be using too much detergent or washing your dishes in
water that is too hot. Try using less detergent and a lower
temperature setting. (See pages 5 and 8.)

5)

It’s normal to have some water left in the sump area near the
drain. If the water fills more than the drain area, see page 9 for
possible solutions.
