Preparing utensils for potwash
Scrape off any loose food remnants before placing utensils in
machine (fig. 5).
NB! Do not soak. To avoid formation of foam, do not use
washing-up liquid. If foam is created, the machine will not per-
form properly.
Loading pots and pans
All potwashing should be carried out in the basket with dirty
surfaces facing spray pipes. It is important that utensils are firmly
in place when being washed.
The basket is loaded on an adjoining bench. Press the arrow
key to open the hood. Slide the wash basket into the machine.
The basket wheel is designed so that you can clearly feel when
the basket has been pushed in correctly.
Check that nothing is sticking out from the basket’s sides or
bottom. Downward movement of the hood or basket rotation
must not be hindered.
Loading crockery and cutlery to be washed
Place the items to be washed in the wash basket. Rinse off any
remaining bits of food. Press the arrow key to open the hood.
Push the wash basket into position in the machine. The basket
wheel is designed to let you feel when the basket is positioned
correctly.
GD 701 Standard wash basket (6:1 - 6:2)
A basket in which six 1/1 GN containers can be stood on
their edges inside a guide pin along the inside of the wash
basket, and one can be washed lying down in the centre of
the basket. 1/2 GN containers can also be positioned like this.
The basket can also accommodate 2/1 GN containers. Two
GN 2/1s can be placed back to back and are each held in
position by a GD 754 flexible pot support. Alternatively, one
GN 2/1 can be clamped in position using a GD 750 pan and
ladle holder.
GD 657 Plate basket (7)
A basket, 500 x 500 mm, in which you can wash either 18 flat
plates or 12 deep plates.

can be washed using this holder in the standard wash basket.
Ladles, whisks, spatulas and the like can be washed in the net
basket in the middle of the holder.
Alternatively, one GN 2/1 can be clamped in position using
the pan and ladle holder (pict. 9).

Select washing with or without granules
Washing with granules (6) is selected for all dishwashing. Howe-
ver, the programme without granules (7) should be selected when
washing canteens and utensils where granules may be trapped in
cavities, and for transparent plastic items.
Select required wash time
Short 2 min, 20 s.
Normal 4 min, 20 s.
Long 6 min, 20 s.
All three programmes are 30 seconds shorter when washing wit-
hout granules. Combi mode dishwashing programme 2 min 30 s.
Starting
Press the start button (1). The machine is pre-programmed so
that it cannot be started if the temperature in the wash tank is
lower than 65 °C at the time of the first start once the water has
been added. The lock is set to 60 °C for subsequent starts so as
to achieve complete washing. Washing at too low a temperature
increases the risk of foam formation and the items to be washed
failing to wash clean. Reprogramming may be carried out by
authorised personnel only. When a programme in Combi mode
is run, the display will indicate for the first ten seconds that a
potwashing programme has been selected. During this time, the
machine detects what kind of items are to be washed.
NB: Granule Combi is unable to wash crockery and cutlery using
Granules.
While the programme is running, the display shows which pro-
gramme is being run, how much programme time is remaining
and the temperatures in the wash tank and rinse tank.

When the wash programme is complete, the hood rises auto-
matically and the display shows the most recently operated pro-
gramme, for example:
You can now reload the machine and run the next programme.
Close the hood even if you are not running another wash pro-
gramme straight away. This saves energy and reduces water
vapour evaporation.
Operation
All Granule Combi wash programmes start with 10 seconds of
detection. During this time, the machine determines what type
of wash basket has been placed in the machine. This is done
automatically. The operator does not to decide whether to run a
programme in Combi mode or a potwashing programme.
A potwashing programme is started when the operator selects
which programme is to be run and then presses the START
button. The potwashing programmes short, normal and long
start off with washing with Granules for 1, 3 or 5 minutes, they
then continue without Granules for 30 seconds. The rinse is set
to guarantee a water temperature of 85 °C for 30 seconds. If the
machine has the steam reduction function fitted, the programme
with take an extra 30 seconds to cool the air in the machine and
so reduce the amount of steam escaping into the dishwashing
area or kitchen.
A Combi mode was programme is selected automatically when
a plastic basket is inserted in the machine and started simply by
pressing the START button. This programme is 2 minutes long
and is followed by a 20-second rinse. If the machine is fitted with
the optional steam reduction unit, a further 30 seconds will be
required to cool the air in the machine.
Stopping the machine while in operation
If you want to stop the machine before the wash programme is
finished then change to washing without granules for about 30
seconds to rinse any remaining granules from the items being
washed. Then press the STOP button. If the programme with-
out granules is selected and if it is imperative that the machine is
stopped then you can press the stop button immediately.
NB! The pots and pans may have detergent on them and should
be washed before being taken out of the machine and used!
Inspection of pots
As with all washing up, it is important that staff check the results.
Remove any granules that have got stuck onto pots or corners,
sharp angles or other inaccessible places (fig. 12).
Granules
The granule potwashing machine from GRANULDISK AB
works best with our specially designed granules. These are manu-
factured to provide the best results, as well as the longest possible
working life for themselves and the machine. The warranty only
applies if granules from Granuldisk AB are used in the machine.
The plastic material in the granules may be used in connection
with food. We recommend that all granules be changed several
times a year.
HACCP Operation and Hygiene documentation
The Granule Combi meets the most stringent requirements
for disinfecting cleaning of pots and pans to be washed by
guaranteeing a heat treatment of these items equivalent to 3
600 HUE (heat unit equivalents in accordance with ANSI/
NSF 3, 2001.) This hygiene level exceeds set European
requirements and is equivalent to the most stringent hygiene
requirements set internationally.
Granuldisk® Documentation Tool, GDTdirect™, is an
integrated function for the documentation of the dishwashing
machine’s operating parameters and critical hygiene control
points, HACCP. Operating data for the last 100 wash pro-
grammes run is viewed directly in the control panel window. An
external computer can be linked to the machine and operating
data stored in separate files so that all historical data can be saved.
