This morning I was starting the dishwasher like I've done hundreds of times. For my really heavily soiled loads, I choose the Auto > Sanitize > Extra Dry options and the time sets at 2:51. This morning I did what I always do and noticed the time was set at 3:01.
The difference was the "Add Rinse Aid" light had come on. So I filled the Rinse Agent dispenser and the time went back down to 2:51. I had no idea the machine would do this. I guess it assumes if there is no Rinse Agent it will have to dry longer?? Anyone else notice this? |

I have the Bosch 300 series and did notice the same issue also how the time increases without rinse aid added. I have the machine a short time and like it and I do use rinse aid! The sanitize and extra dry are basically the same option they both heat the water to 162 degrees in the final rinse. My area I live in has soft water so I keep the rinse aid set at Low # 2, plus I live in a coop where the water is so hot I don't need to use the sanitize or extra dry. Everything comes out clean and bone dry! The walls of the DW are wet but I don't care about that as long as the dishes are dry. Only plastic things are at times damp. Over all I am very Happy with this DW!
