If your dishwasher tablet says that it is "all in one" do you still have to put salt in? My dishwasher keeps indicating that it is out of salt, but I do not know whether I need it.

hi Vampyr,


Do I need to add salt and rinse aid?


Rinse aid is required to
•Ensure spot-free, shiny dishes
•Assist the drying function

Salt is required to
•protect your machine from limescale
•soften the water for better cleaning

With multi-benefit tablets such as Finish Quantum and Finish All in One, rinse aid and salt functions are included. However, in very hard water areas we also recommend the use of seperate Salt and Rinse aid products to protect your machine and achieve the best result.

This advice is taken directly from Finish's website.

In my flat, we need to add a good cup of tea and biscuits to the dishwasher - me! - as it is still done manually :)
