The water may not be hot in the Winterhalter GS 501 dishwashing machine after several washes because the temperature in the boiler or tank may have exceeded 95°C, triggering a red flashing light and a fault code (Err 2 or Err 3). This shuts off the machine for safety. You should switch off the main power and contact Winterhalter customer service.

The dishwasher is a technical implement for commercial use and is not intended for domestic applications. Any change in design or use of the utensil washer carried out without the written permission of Winterhalter Gastronom GmbH leads to the guarantee and product liability becoming null and void. If damage is caused to the utensil washer due to failure to observe the instructions given in this manual, no claims under guaran- tee can be made to Winterhalter Gastronom GmbH.
Before you use the machine in your work, it must be connected on your premises by trained specialists in conformance with locally effective regulations and then set in operation by the Winterhalter customer service. Do not expose the machine to freezing temperatures. Freezing can damage running water systems damaged.

The machine must be entirely connected to the electrical power mains and the fresh water supply and waste water drain system. The electrical safety system must be tested and fully functional. A Winterhalter customer service technical performs the initial start-up. In the process, the operator of the machine is instructed in how the machine works.

4.2 Functions of the dishwasher After the machine is switched on, the dishwasher heats up the water in the boiler. During this heating up phase, the tank is filled in stages with water which is heated simultaneously. The programme button (6) is lit red during the heating up phase.
This leads to large amounts of foam building up in the washer. We recommend the products developed by Winterhalter Gastronom. These are spe- cially developed to suit Winterhalter Gastronom washers. Warning: Detergents for commercial dishwashers can cause corrosion. Always follow the instructions on the packaging and drums.

Only use detergent which are suitable for commercial washers. Do not use normal washing-up liquid. This leads to large amounts of foam building up in the washer. We recommend the products developed by Winterhalter Gastronom. These are spe- cially developed to suit Winterhalter Gastronom washers.

Programmes with reduced rinse temperature (optional) The first rinse cycle with reduced rinse temperature is carried out with the high rinse temperature of the wash programme set previously. Press function button. The button area with the special programmes is activated. Press function button.
Changing the programme setting Changing the programme setting for the special programmes and for the normal programme can be carried out with the hood open or closed (if the automatic hood start is inactive). Changing between the special programmes Select desired programme (press button). The previously selected programme is thus cancelled.
Leave hood open. This helps the interior dry out. This is important to prevent rust, even on stainless steel. • Clean the outer walls of the dishwasher with cleaning products for high grade stain- less steel. We recommend Winterhalter Gastronom high grade stainless steel cleaner and Winterhalter high grade stainless steel protection. 89005779...

9.2 Switching off After the cleaning programme has finished, the control of the dishwasher is switched off. The machine is not yet safe, however. Turn water stop valve to closed position. Switch off the mains disconnecting device (mains switch) provided by the customer. Now the machine is safe.
To keep the machine functional for a long time, it should be cared for at regular intervals. In addition, we recommend have Winterhalter customer service overhaul the machine twice each year. Do not spray the machine with a high-pressure or steam jet cleaning unit.

Otherwise, the mixing of different types of detergent will cause crystallisation, which may result in a break- down of the dosing pump. Failure to observe this rule will lead to the loss of guarantee and product liability claims vis-à-vis Winterhalter Gastronom GmbH.
You can remedy minor malfunctions yourself. See the following table. If you cannot remedy the fault, please get in touch with the responsible Winterhalter customer service. Do not open any panels or parts of the machine if you need a tool to do so. You may get an electric shock.
