MAINTENANCE MAINTENANCE Cleaning your machine is the best maintenance that you can provide. Components that are not regularly flushed and cleaned do not perform well. The Maintenance intervals shown in the following schedules are the minimum requirements necessary for the proper performance of your machine. Maintenance intervals should be shortened whenever your machine is faced with abnormal working conditions, hard water, or multiple shift operations.
MAINTENANCE DELIMING Your dishwasher should be delimed regularly depending on the mineral content of your water. Inspect the machine interior for mineral deposits and use a deliming solution for the best cleaning results. NOTE: Consult your chemical supplier for an appropriate deliming solution. WARNING: Deliming solutions or other acids must not come in contact with household bleach (sodium hypochlorite) or any chemicals containing chlorine, iodine, bromine, or fluorine.
MAINTENANCE OPERATION CHECKS • Daily Check temperature gauges for proper readings. Check pressure gauge for proper reading (D-H1, D-HB ONLY). Check for leaks. Check chemical supplies and refill as necessary. • Weekly Inspect all water lines for leaks. Clean all detergent residue from the exterior of the machine. Check the drains for leaks.
