Operation
Cycle Execution
A cycle can be stopped at any time by pressing the Stop key. The machine will go to the stop routine. When the routine is complete, the display shows “donE” until the door is unlocked.
To display the temperature of the water while a cycle is running, press the Up key. To display the number of the cycle in progress, press the Start key.
NOTE: The computer does not count down the remaining cycle time during fills, drains, cool- down, or prior to first achieving the programmed heat temperature when heating. The computer resumes counting down cycle time once the programmed fill level is reached, when the machine has drained, and after a programmed heat temperature is reached.
Each of the 30 cycles consists of 11 segments: PreWash, Wash, and Fills 1 – 9. A description of the various steps in a cycle segment follows:
Fill
After the Start key is pressed, the drain closes and the machine begins filling to the programmed level. Each programmed segment begins with a fill. The display counts down the remaining cycle time in minutes and seconds while the cycle is running.
If a supply is programmed in a step, the supply dispenser will flush during the fill of that segment.
If the machine is connected to an external chemical supply system, the programmed supply will begin
10 seconds into the fill. The supply will remain on until the programmed water level is reached, or until 60 seconds have elapsed, whichever happens first.
If agitation options 1 or 2 are selected for the cycle program, the cylinder will rotate slowly during the fill step. If agitation options 3 or 4 are selected for the cycle program, the cylinder will not rotate during the fill step. Refer to Table 3 for more information.
If the computer does not receive a signal that water level has been attained within 30 minutes, it will alternately flash “STOP” and “FILL” and sound the
Wash
As soon as water level is reached (and any programmed temperature is reached), the displayed time begins counting down at
Agitation is active during this portion of the segment. There are four different agitation actions available. Refer to Table 3 for more information.

Table 3
If the segment contains a heat step, the machine begins heating after the water has reached the programmed level.
NOTE: If the water does not reach the programmed temperature in 40 minutes, the computer progresses to the wash step.
