Automatic dosing

The required detergent (detergent dosing pump: option) and rinse aid is transported out
of the containers into the tank, resp. boiler, via electronically controlled dosing units. The
dosing is effected automatically acc. to the requirements arising during the wash process.
If unsuitable products are used, the life of the dosing equipment will be significantly
shortened.
We therefore recommend that detergents should have a pH value greater than 7 and
that rinse agents should have a pH value between 7 and 2.

Operation during washing and rinsing cycle

The following fundamental principles must be observed when placing the items to be
washed in the baskets:
• All hollow containers must always to be loaded upside down. Otherwise the water will
be trapped inside and they will not dry to a brilliant finish.
• Plates, trays and big plates should always stand at a slight angle in the basket. The
inside faces pointing upwards.
• When using cutlery baskets, ensure that cutlery is always inserted handle down.
• Load the cutlery baskets with a mixture of spoons, knives and forks, as identical items
of cutlery can be too close together.
• Do not overload the baskets.
• Do not stack the dishes in the wash basket, as the wash water could not strike the
items directly and the wash times would have to be unnecessarily prolonged. Short
wash times with baskets which are not overloaded are much more economical.
Some fundamental points must be observed in case of excessive soiling intake:
• Make sure that the sieve is not totally clogged with waste food, soiling particles or other
foreign bodies. Check the sieve for soiling between washes, and clean as needed. A
high water level above the tank cover sieve after washing is indicative of a high level of
soiling or a blockage.
7.4.1 Start the wash cycle
• Pre-wash the dishware (major food residues, serviettes, tooth picks, etc.) and
place in the basket.
• Place the basket in the appliance, ensuring that it is correctly centred.
Close the hood.
•
(In case of automatic hood opening: Close the hood using the programme start
key or the hood open/close button).
Ensure that no part of your body is between the hood and the tank when the
hood is closing.
Press the program start key.
•
The appliance washes and rinses automatically and switches off the wash program after
completion. The program cycle is indicated by a light on the program start key.
+The wash time can differ from the set program time if the boiler heating capacity or
tank heating capacity (by disinfection machine) is not sufficient for heating up, the
fresh water to the pre-set boiler temperature to the keep program time. In this case,
the automatic wash time extension is activated. (see chapter 11)
