Filling the machine
The bottom valve is closed by pressing the close button (7) or
by selecting a programme. The machine automatically fills with
water when the doors are closed and a programme selected. The
lamps for the wash programmes selected to fill the machine flash
out of time while the machine fills with water.
Select washing with or without granules
Washing-up with granules (5) is used for all heavily soiled items.
Washing-up (6) without granules should be selected for lightly
soiled goods or for perforated trays or utensils where granules can
fasten as well as for transparent plastic materials. There is an ultra-
short programme for lightly soiled utensils. NB! The ultrashort
programme is not designed to cope with burnt-on food.
Select desired washing up time
• Short, 5 min 30 s. 3
• Long, 7 min 30 s. 4
• Ultrashort 3 min, 30 s. 1 + 3
Keep button for normal 3 programme pressed down while start
button 1 is pressed.
The lamp 3 will blink as confirmation of the choice.
Start
Press the start button (1) . The water temperature in the wash tank
should be at least 60 °C to obtain the best results (the preset tem-
perature is 65 °C). Washing at temperatures that are too low also
increases the risk for the creation of foam and a poor wash result.
The machine can be preprogrammed so that it cannot be started
before the temperature in the tank has reached at least 60 °C. Re-
programming should only be carried out by qualified staff.
This default temperature is already installed at the factory in
machines equipped with GDT™. To clean the inside of the ma-
chine, run a short programme with the machine empty before
the first run.
Operation
The wash programme begins by washing with/without granules
for 1, 3 or 5 minutes after which there is a rinse without granules
followed by a final rinse at 85 °C with fresh water for 30 seconds.
If the temperature of the final rinse water is too low, the wash
time is increased until 85 °C is reached. The air in the machine
is then cooled for 1 minute to lower the temperature of the pots
and remove steam.
When the rinse or wash tank elements are activated and the wa-
ter is being heated, this is indicated by the lamp lighting under
the rinse (9) or wash (10 tank thermometer. Not in operation
simultaneously.
NB! The doors cannot be opened before the wash programme is com-
pleted and the operating lamp is off 1a .

Stopping the machine while in operation
Should it be required to stop the machine before the washing
cycle is complete, switch to washing with water for about 30 sec-
onds (6) to rinse off all granules. Then press the stop button (2)
. The stop button can be pressed immediately if the programme
without granules is being used or if the machine must be stopped
in an emergency.
NB! Utensils can have remains of detergent on them and should be
washed again before they are taken out of the machine and used!
Inspecting pots and pans
It is important, as with all washing up, that staff check the re-
sults. Remove any granules that have fastened in corners, sharp
angles and other inaccessible places (fig 14)
Granules
Granule potwashing machines from Granuldisk AB work best
with our specially designed granules. Their design ensures the
best wash results as well as the longest working life both for
themselves and the machine. For this reason, the guarantee only
applies if granules from Granuldisk AB are used in the machine.
The plastic material in the granules is approved for use in con-
junction with food.
We recommend that the granules are replaced several times a year.
Hygiene
The machine is prepared for automatic HACCP documentation.
Specially developed software, GDT™, Granuldisk Documenta-
tion Tool, and a modem are then required.

Collecting and cleaning the granules
The granule collector, which comes with the machine, is the
easiest way of emptying the machine of granules for cleaning or
changing. Place the GD 655 granule collector in the runners for
a GN 1/1 on the right of a GD 672 or GD 675 insert (see fig.
15). The insert should be placed in the bottom of the cabinet.
Close the doors and start a long programme (see p. 13). All the
granules will end up in the granule collector.
Take out the filled granule collector and wash (shower) the
granules thoroughly so that any food remains are washed away.
The machine should have about 6 kg granules. There is a mark
for 6 kg in the granule collector. Alternative method for control
of granule level, please see Servicemanual page 13.
NB! Never use too many granules in the machine. This can lead
to blockages in the spray pipes as well as an inferior wash result.
Emptying the tank
Press the stop button (2) (see page 13). Then press the emptying
button (8) (see page 13).
The lamp lights briefly while the valve moves into the open position.
Cleaning
• Lift out inserts (fig. 3).
• Take out both spray pipes (fig. 11).
• Lift out bottom grating (fig. 16).
• Lift out overflow sieve (A, fig. 17).
• Wash inside of machine with water only (fig. 17).
• Remove sieve cover by pulling handle straight up (B, fig. 17).
• Then clean parts that have been lifted out. Be especially careful
to check that spray pipes are not blocked.
• Wipe the level guard (C, fig. 17).
• The drip channel should also be washed clean and dried (D,
fig. 17). It is important that this is done to avoid the channel
becoming blocked.
• Wipe door seals.
• Wipe inside of machine with a damp cloth. The outside of
the machine should not be washed with high-pressure water.
• The top should be wiped off as required or at least once a month.
Replacement of fittings
Replace all fittings.
Ensure the handle on the sieve cover is pressed in (B, fig. 17).
It is important that the spray pipes are secured properly. If this is
a problem it could be that there are granules between the spray
pipe and the rubber seal. Take out the spray pipe, remove any
granules and try again. Never use force to fit the spray pipes!
NB! If the overflow sieve is not put back then the granules will
run down the drain.
During longer stoppages
• Ensure that wash tank is completely empty after cleaning.
Any water remaining in the bottom should be removed with a
sponge or similar absorbent.
• Leave doors slightly open so that air can circulate in the
machine.
• Granules should be stored in granule collector standing in the
machine.
• After a longer stoppage; check operation of the machine
according to service manual, possibly with the assistance of a
service engineer.

4.Troubleshooting and alarms
16
Check the following if the utensils are not completely clean:
·Are the spray nozzles blocked?
·Were the utensils located cor
rectly?
·Wasthe right programme selected?
·Is the wash water very dirty?
·Are there sufficient granules?
·Is the detergent dosing correct?
The machine is equipped with various alarms.
Spray pipe motor alarm
If the spray pipes should become blocked for any reason, the
machine comes to a total standstill and all the lamps on the
control panel 1 - 10 begin to blink in time. If the alarm goes
off: Switch the machine off by pressing the stop button 2.
Open the doors, check what has caused the alarm and remedy
the fault. Then close the doors, select a new wash programme
and start the machine.
NB! Contact a service engineer if no fault is found.
Long filling time
If it takes too long to fill the wash tank, the lamp for emptying
the wash tank blinks out of time with the others. Check that
the water supply is switched on. Another cause can be a block in
the drain valve or a false reading for the water level. NB! If the
drain valve is blocked or there is a false level reading, contact the
service staff.
Long time after filling
If the washing with granules lamp blinks out of time with the
others, the most likely problem is foaming in the machine.
NB! Contact the service staff to check that the temperatures in the
wash and rinse tanks are correct. Check that washing-up liquid is
not being used in the machine. Contact your detergent supplier to
check if the detergent dosing is correct.
Wrong temperature in the wash or rinse
tank
If either of the lamps under the symbols for the washwater
or rinse water thermometers blinks out of time with the
others the thermostat is not working. The machine cannot be
started before the thermostat has been replaced.
NB! Contact the service staff for a check.
