Warning
Risk of injury from contact with chemicals
•
Observe the safety data sheets and dosing recommendations of the chemical
manufacturers.
•
Use eye protection.
•
Wear protective gloves.
•

Only use products that are suitable and approved for commercial dishwashers.
MEIKO recommends MEIKO ACTIVE detergent and rinse aid. MEIKO ACTIVE
products are optimally adapted to MEIKO dishwashing machines.
•
Do not mix different cleaning products.
The dishwashing machine is equipped by default with dosing units for dosing liquid
detergent/rinse aid. Manual dosing with powder cleaner is not intended.
Optionally, the dishwashing machine can be equipped with or prepared for an exter-
nal dosing system. In this case, further information can be found on the wiring dia-
gram and in the External dosing document.
Detergents are alkaline (pH value should be > 7) and are needed to dissolve soiling
from the washware. The standard setting is 2 ml of detergent per litre of tank water.
If necessary, the concentration can be adjusted depending on the water quality,
washware and degree of soiling. This setting is made during commissioning by an
service technician authorised by MEIKO or the chemical supplier.
Change dosing quantity, see chapter "Dosing system level" on page 44.
Rinse aids are acidic (pH value should be between 2 and 7) and accelerate the dry-
ing of the washware by reducing the surface tension of the water so that it can run
off the washware quickly.
The correct dosage is achieved when the water drips evenly from the washware and
depends on the available water quality on-site. This setting is made during commis-
sioning by an service technician authorised by MEIKO or the chemical supplier.
Change dosing quantity, see chapter "Dosing system level" on page 44.
The components of the dosing units are subject to high demands and must therefore
be regularly maintained and, if necessary, replaced in accordance with the mainte-
nance specification.
The service life of the dosing units and other components of the dishwashing ma-
chine depends on the use of suitable chemical products. MEIKO recommends
MEIKO ACTIVE detergent and rinse aid. MEIKO ACTIVE products are optimally
adapted to the dishwashing machine.
