Operation

3.2.Beginning Operation

To run the dishmachine, perform the following steps:

1. Close both drains (valve handles in vertical position).

CLOSE CLOSE

2.Turn on the power to the dishmachine. The machine will begin its (adjustable) timed auto-fill. The float when sensing adequate water level energizes an ice cube relay, which will allow power to go to the heater while the door is closed and the water temperature is below the thermostat setting.

3.The temperature of the water in the tank should be 140°F – 150°F. The Tank heater will maintain a minimum temperature of 140° F if the final rinse is providing 140°F – 150°F at all times (CMA-44L). 150°F minimum will be maintained if the final rinse is 180°F – 195°F (CMA-44H).

If the thermostat (located behind the stainless steel cover on the final rinse side of the machine) should need adjustment—there is a thermostat adjustment access hole located on the cover.

Tip: If you are having difficulty maintaining wash tank temperature, minimize the vent hood openings by closing off the dampers.

4.Be sure to place the dishes correctly. If they become dislodged, they could interfere with the trip switch lever and interrupt the operation of the machine.
