599735A TECHNICAL OVERVIEW Chassis The DishDrawer™ chassis is one complete assembly composed of 5 steel metal components locked together by a proprietary riveting process. The chassis exterior is made of a lacquered electro-galvanised material. Unlike most other dishwashers, the chassis assembly is a load carrying structure designed to impart stiffness to the product and to ensure deflection is minimised.
599735A 3.1.1 Tub Home Sensor The tub home sensor determines when the tub is closed. The tub home sensor consists of an infrared sender and receiver mounted on the right side of electronic controller. When the tub is fully closed, infrared light is transmitted from the sender through a light pipe on the side of the tub, through a prism mounted in the chassis trim, then back through the other light pipe to the receiver.
599735A 3.4.2 During a Power Failure If power to the DishDrawer™ fails with the lid down, the tub can still be forced open manually if access is required. It is very difficult however to close the tub again without raising the lid. The lid actuators can be wound up manually with the tub fully removed.
599735A 3.6.3 Amount of Water The tub fills with approximately 2.5 litres / 0.8 US gallons of water, almost level with the base of the spray arm. Once this level is reached, the wash pump (which has load-sensed the fill via the electronics) becomes primed and pumps the water through the spray arm causing it to rotate.
599735A Drain Cycle The drain pump is a self-priming centrifugal pump that only pumps when the motor is rotating in the drain direction (anti-clockwise). It has a five bladed impellor pushed into a spline on the lower end of the rotor shaft. The drain pump housing, which incorporates an inlet and outlet pipe, is welded to the motor housing, hence captivating the motor.
599735A 3.12 Water Softener (Where Fitted) The Water Softener uses a softening material (resin) to prevent most of the elements that cause hard water from being present in the wash water. The resin can only treat a limited amount of water before it needs to be regenerated.
599735A OPTION ADJUSTMENT MODE To enter this setup mode, press POWER, then hold the ECO touch switch and KEYLOCK button simultaneously for 5 seconds, ensuring that ECO is pushed first. Once the setup mode is entered, a beep is emitted and the LCD displays the letters rA. Pushing the START/PAUSE button allows the user to scroll through and change the following options:- •...
599735A Selection of a setting affects how the electronic controller diverts supply water, how much water is treated, and how much salt is used in regeneration, in a manner that optimises the performance of the water softener. Note: On an integrated DishDrawer™, when the user turns on or turns off one of the following options, it is indicated by the red wash cycle LEDs on the secondary control panel.
599735A 4.6.1 Option Adjustment Quick Reference Charts Rinse Aid Setting (rA): (Alters the amount of rinse aid dispensed.) Press and hold ECO, then press KEYLOCK for 5 seconds. rA will be displayed (integrated: Red LED above start/pause button showing). Press KEYLOCK.

599735A DIAGNOSTICS DishDrawer™ Diagnostics DishDrawer™ diagnostics can only be entered in Power Off mode, i.e. when there is no display on the LCD, or the badge LEDs are off. Note: If the product has been powered off at the wall due to a fault code error, once power is turned back on wait 30 seconds before trying to enter diagnostics, as the product will be doing a self check in this time, and will not allow diagnostics to be entered.
599735A Warning: Once a fault code has been cleared, it is permanently removed from memory and cannot be recovered. Press POWER to advance to the next level. 5.1.3 Hardware Output Diagnostic Test Mode This level tests all the hardware outputs and inputs. The LCD display shows HO. Press POWER to skip hardware diagnostics and advance to the next level.
599735A 5.1.4 Fast Test Cycle WARNING : Only run this cycle if connected to the water supply. This level runs an 8-minute fast test cycle. Press POWER to skip fast test cycle and advance to the next level. Press START/PAUSE to enter fast test cycle.
599735A 5.1.5 Continuous Cycle Test Mode In this level the DishDrawer™ can be run continuously in any wash cycle. Once the cycle has finished, the DishDrawer™ automatically restarts the same wash cycle. Press POWER to skip continuous cycle. As this is the last level, doing this will exit diagnostics. Press START/PAUSE to enter continuous cycle.
599735A 5.1.8 Show Off / Showroom Wash Mode This mode initiates a shop show off display and wash operation demonstration. With the DishDrawer™ powered up and turned on, the show off mode is entered by pressing and holding the ECO and POWER buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. Ensure that ECO is pressed first.
599735A Diagnostics Quick Reference Charts 5.2.1 Fault Display/Download Mode Press and hold KEYLOCK, then press START/PAUSE for 5 seconds. All LEDs & LCD segments except Keylock are illuminated. Press START / PAUSE. This initiates a pen data download via the lower tub-home light pipe. At the same time, the current and then the previous fault code will be displayed in the LCD screen and on the secondary control panel LEDs.
599735A 5.2.3 Fast Test Cycle Press and hold KEYLOCK, then press START/PAUSE for 5 seconds. All LEDs & LCD segments except Keylock are illuminated. Press POWER twice. FC will show in the display (integrated: Heavy, Normal, Delicate, Rinse LEDs showing). Press START/PAUSE twice.
599735A FAULT CODES AND POOR PERFORMANCE Faults are displayed on the LCD (not fitted on integrated or flat door models) and on the touch switch panel. There are nine F (fatal) faults, which are displayed along with a spanner in the LCD (if fitted). An F fault will usually require the assistance of a qualified service person.
