•Carefully store all documentation near the appliance; give it to the technicians and operators
who will be using it. It is the operator’s duty to read, understand and learn this manual
before starting any operation on the machine. The appliance is intended for the
professional washing of dishes for dining facilities. Therefore, installation, use and
maintenance must in all cases be performed by trained personnel who follow the
manufacturer’s instructions. Do not leave within the reach of children. The choice of
materials, construction in conformity with EC safety directives and complete testing ensure
the quality of this machine.
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to property or injuries to persons
deriving from failure to comply with the instructions given or from improper use of the
machine.
Chap 2 INSTALLATION
Proper installation is essential in order for the machine to operate well. Some of the data needed
for machine installation can be found on the data plate placed on the right side of the machine and
in duplicate on the cover of this manual.
Only qualified, authorised technicians must install the machine.
2.1 Unpacking
Check that the packing is in perfect condition and write down any damage found on the delivery
note. After you have removed the packing, make sure the appliance is intact. If the machine is
damaged, immediately notify the dealer by fax or by registered letter with advice of receipt and the
haulage contractor that transported it. If the damage is such as to jeopardize machine safety, do
not install and/or use it until a qualified technician services it.
The packing components (plastic bags, foam polystyrene, nails, etc. ...) must not be
left within the reach of children and pets as they may be dangerous.
2.2 Positioning
•Check that there are no objects and materials in the installation area
that can be damaged by steam that may exit the machine during
operation, or at least that they are sufficiently protected.
•In order to ensure stability, install and balance the machine on its
four feet.
•Different installation solutions must be agreed upon and approved
by the manufacturer.

2.3 Electrical connection
•There must be an omnipolar type of main switch that
disconnects all contacts, including the neutral, with a distance
of at least 3 mm between the open contacts and with safety
circuit breaker tripping or connected with fuses, to be sized or
calibrated in conformity with the power indicated on the machine’s
data plate.
•The main switch must be located on the electric line close to the
place of installation, and it must serve only one appliance at a time.
•Electric network voltage and frequency must coincide with those
given on the data plate.
•There must be an effective earthing system in conformity with
the prevention standards in force for operator and equipment
safety.
•The power supply cable (type H07RN-F only) must not be pulled or
crushed during normal operation or routine maintenance.
•The unipotential terminal fastened to the body must be connected to
a unipotential cable having a section suited to the application.
•Respect the polarities indicated in the wiring diagram.
•Consult that attached wiring diagram for additional information.
Do not use adaptors, multiple socket outlets or cables of inadequate type and
section or with extension connections not compliant with plant engineering
standards in force.
2.4 Plumbing connection
The appliance is to be connected to the water network with a hose.
There must be a slide on-off, ball or gate valve able to quickly and
completely turn off the water if necessary between the water network
and the appliance’s solenoid valve. The on-off valve must be on the line
near and just before the appliance.
•If the system is new or nearly so, let the water run a long time before making the connection.
•The water supply, temperature and pressure must be compatible with what is indicated on the
machine’s technical data plate.
•If the water’s hardness is greater than 14 F (8 dH), we recommend you use the machine with
internal water softener (available on request). If the water’s hardness is greater than 35 F (19.5
dH), we recommend you install an external water softener upline of the solenoid valve.
Free drain
2.5 Connection to the drain line
•The drain line must be made up of a free water trap of a size
proportionate to the delivery of the drain pipe supplied with the
machine. The pipe must be able to reach the water trap without
being pulled, squeezed, bent, crushed, pressed or forced in any
way.
•The tank empties by gravity, so the drain must be at a lower level
than the base of the machine.

correct (
Fig. 2 ) .
4.3 Washing cycle
With reference to Fig.3 , for correct operation of the machine, it is advisable to follow these rules:
•Use a suitable rack, filling it without overloading it and without placing the dishes one on top of
the other.
•Always clean off the dishes beforehand,and do not load dishes with dry or solid residue on
them.
•Place empty containers upside-down on the rack. Put the plates and similar kitchenware into
the special inclined rack, with the internal surface facing upwards. Put mixed silverware into
the special basket with the handles facing downwards.
•Wash the dishes immediately after use, in order to prevent any residuals from hardening and
sticking on them.
•Load the rack into the machine and close the door.
•To avoid breakage, use only dishes that are intact and guaranteed for machine washing.
•Do not place silver and stainless steel cutlery in the same basket, since this would cause the
silver to tarnish and the steel to corrode.
4.4 Cycle selection and start-up
•Select the wash cycle suited to the dishes to be washed by pressing SELECT PROGRAMMES
(2).
•To start the programme just press START (3): during the programme the timer bar will
progressively indicate the residual time (

Warning: the special programmes available depend on the dishwasher model.
4.6
Description of special programmes
GLASSES (PLATES) wash programme.
The Glasses programme is suited for washing glasses of any shape or type.
This programme washes with a low rinse temperature and requires a long
drying time.
ATC wash programme.
The Intensive programme is suited for washing very dirty, even encrusted
dishes that have been left for some time. The programme includes 2 washes
and 2 rinses.
STEEL wash programme.
The cutlery wash programme is suited for washing forks, spoons, knives and all
sorts of other cutlery. This wash programme is longer than the others.
GREEN Wash programme.
The ECO wash programme reduces energy consumption by washing at lower
temperatures and with reduced water consumption than normal wash
programmes, a good washing result is achieved by a prolonged mechanical
washing action.
FAST wash programme.
The Fast wash programme is recommended when you need good results in a
short time. The programme exploits the good mechanical action and high
washing temperatures.
NEW wash programme.
The NEW programme is recommended when you wish to wash with a total
change of water in the washing tub, so for consecutive washes of particularly
greasy and dirty dishes.
The full change of the water in the tub requires a longer wash cycle.
SANITISER wash programme.
The Sanitiser programme is recommended when the dishes to be washed also
have to be sanitised.
This programme controls the wash temperature and time calculating the
constant A0. The programme ends when A0 is 30.
The length is variable, but is generally around 20 minutes and the wash
temperature reaches approximately 72 C°.
If you need an A0 value other than 30 contact an authorised technician, who
will modify the machine software for you.
