Problem: Dishmachine fill slowly and/or the rinse is weak.

1.Clogged or obstructed rinse arms. Remove and clean the rinse arms.

2.Low incoming water pressure. Adjust the water pressure regulator to ensure that there is 20±5 PSI flow.

3.Y-strainer is clogged. Clean out the Y-strainer.

Problem: Rinse water not reaching required temperature.

1.Faulty rinse heater. Check element for continuity; if open, replace heater.

2.Misadjusted/faulty thermostat(s). Verify operation and setting of thermostats, replace if necessary.
