4.1 Before use
4.1.1 Preparing the operation
Make sure that the machine has been cleaned and that the water supply valves are
in the OPEN position.
Put the overflow pipe and the drain plugs in place. Make sure that they are properly
fastened to the lift shaft (11).
Check the condition of rubber gaskets (10).
Put the strainers and curtains in place.
Check the amount of detergent and rinse aid.
Close the doors.
4.2 Operation
4.2.1 Start of dishwashing
Turn the machine’s control switch (11) to position 1 and wait until the tanks fill and the
water heates up. The filling time is approx. 6-13 minutes. In dishwashers connected to
cold water supply, the filling time is 30 minutes at the maximum. When the temperatures
are clearly visible on the displays (1, 3, 14) the machine is ready for dishwashing.
Push the button AUT. The machine starts and runs for a moment for mixing the detergent.
4.2.2 Dishwashing
Remove loose food residues and rack the dishes.Rack the trays longitudinally to machine.
If GN containers are washed in the machine, they must be placed in a special rack and fed
into the machine longitudinally.
Choose the wash method AUT or MAN.
AUT = Wash with an automatic stop. The dishwasher starts when a rack is fed in.
The rack remains within the wash zone until the next rack pushes it on. The dish-
washer stops automatically if no new rack is fed in.
MAN = Wash without an automatic stop. The dishwasher starts immediately. The
MAN position is preferable for heavily soiled wash items. If only one rack is fed,
4.12.2000 Rev. 2.2

it stops and is processed in the wash zone for a duration that can be decided by the
operator. The rack will be pushed out of the dishwasher when a new rack is fed in.
We recommend to feed in racks at the following intervals:
approx. 50cm
Increase the distance if the wash items are heavily soiled.
4.3 After use
4.3.1 Cleaning
The temperature of the rinsing water is approx. 85ºC. Do not open the machine doors until
the washing process is completed.
Cleaning: The temperature of wash water in the power wash tank is approx. 60ºC and it
is mixed with detergent. Be careful when emptying and cleaning the tanks. Use protective
gloves.
Use of a pressure washer for cleaning the machine is forbidden.
Do not use steel wool for cleaning the machine. Use of steel wool may cause rust spots on
the machine surfaces. Do not either use detergents that, if not thorougly rinsed from sur-
faces, form foam during the wash process, thus impairing the wash result. Consult your
detergent supplier for the correct type of detergent.
It is not allowed to clean the outside of the machine with a jet of water.
For cleaning the outer surfaces, wiping with a damp cloth will often suffice.
When washing floors, water can splash up from the floor, thus damaging electric compo-
nents, which are not designed to withstand rinsing with water. Special protective covers
should be used to protect the machine from water splashes, if the floor is washed with a
pressure washer.
Daily cleaning
Turn the control switch (11) to position 0.
Empty the tanks by pulling the tank drain level (6).
Clean the tank strainers (12), tanks, curtains and wash nozzles. Clean the final
rinse filter (8). Dry the rubber lists of the doors. The rubber lists are located on the
rear side of the door, in the door’s upper section. Leave the doors open.
Clean the outer surfaces of the machine with a damp cloth. Do not use steel wool
for cleaning. Use of steel wool may cause rust spots on the machine surfaces.

5.3 Electrical connection
For details, see the installation drawing and the connection drawing in chapter “Technical
Specifications”.
There is an electrical wiring diagram inside the electric box door (3). Keep this in the elec-
tric box also after installation.
The main switch (2) has been constructed inside the machine. Connect the cable to the ter-
minal board (1). NOTE. In special cases the electrical feed can be drawn from the floor.
In this case, the cable is drawn under the cover plates (13).
Check the correct rotating direction of the pumps in use when the tanks have filled with
water. The rotating direction has to be the same as indicated by the arrow on the pump. If
the rotation direction is wrong, stop the machine and change two phases of the cable in
the terminal board.
5.4 Water connections
The pipe connection pieces are packed inside the machine.
Adjust the machine horizontally with the feet. Connect the cold and warm water feed (4,
5). There are filters inside the pipe connections.The water connections have to be
equipped with stop cocks. In machines where the water connectios are taken from the
floor, warm and cold water connection points are (8, 9).
5.5 Drain connection
The drain connection (10) can be led either to the right or to the left. Connect the drain
pipe to (A) and draw it to the floor gulley so that the pipe ends above the water level. Re-
move the hole cover from the appropriate side of the cover plate (B) and take the drain
pipe trough it.
5.6 Steam connection
If the machine is steam heated, connect pipes for steam and condensation water to the con-
nection point (11).

5.8 First start, test run
Place the overflow pipe, the drain plugs, the strainer plates and the curtains. Close the
doors.
Make sure that the automatic fuse FU/M in the electric box is on. Turn the control switch
to position ’1’, the tank filling starts.
NOTE! To avoid the burning of boiler heating elements, there is so called filling memory
in the machine which allows you to check if the boilers of the machine are filled or empty.
When the machine is delivered from the factory, the boilers are emptied and the filling
memory is set to zero. When the control switch of the machine is turned to position ’1’,
the tanks and the boilers fill with water. The boilers are filled via the solenoid valve Y02.
When the valve Y02 is open, a red light on the card is lit. If the relay light is not on, the
boilers do not fill and the heating elements may burn. IMMEDIATELY SWITCH OFF
THE MACHINE and set the filling memory to zero. See chapter “Adjusting reference
values” to set the filling memory to zero.
The filling time in the warm water connected machine is appr. 6-13 minutes. The filling
time in the cold water connected machine is 30 minutes at the maximum.
Test the machine with racks, check the temperatures of the tanks and the final rinse. Check
that the machine does not leak from water and detergent connections.
The CE mark is only valid for the machine of original design.
