Section IV
Washer Operation
Start Up
When power is applied to the washer, the control will
display PRICE, INSERT COINS, the decimal point,
and the vend price. The PRICE and INSERT COINS
light will remain lit until the vend price has been
satisfied. The default cycle setting is PERM PRESS,
the wash water fill temperature is WARM, and the
rinse water temperature is COLD. The LED’s will be
lit on PERM PRESS and WARM at the start of the
cycle. See Figure 2. These default settings are owner
programmable. Refer to Section VIII.
“Ready” Mode
The user will be able to select a different cycle or wash
water temperature by pressing a cycle pad when the
machine is in the “Ready” mode or in the first fill
cycle. If not enough coins are entered to satisfy the
vend price, the control will display the remaining vend
price needed to start the cycle. If the first fill was
interrupted to change the temperature (which requires
more money), and the vend price is not satisfied within
one minute, the washer control will go back to the first
selection and the cycle will restart from the point it
was stopped. After the first fill, all key presses will be
ignored, allowing the washer to go through the
complete cycle.
When a cycle is complete, the control will display
TIME REMAINING,
“00” until the washer lid is
opened, a key is pressed, or a coin is entered. When
one of these three options occur, the display will revert
back to the “Ready” mode. See Figure 2.
Cycle Sequence
Upon the start of a cycle, the Electronic Control will
display TIME REMAINING and the total cycle time.
The appropriate status words will light while the
machine passes through different cycle steps. Any coin
entered after the first fill cycle, and before the final
three (3) minutes of the final spin cycle will be added
to the total coin counter. If coins are added during the
final three (3) minutes of the final spin cycle, the
control will return to the “Ready” mode and ask the
user to satisfy the vend price if needed.
Opening the Washer Lid
Any time the washer lid is opened while a cycle is in
progress, the control will deactivate all motor and
water relays. If the lid is opened during a non-spin
cycle, the control display will freeze and the timer will
stop. Once the lid is reclosed, the cycle will restart
from the point of interruption. If the lid is open during
a spin cycle, the status word UNBALANCE will flash,
the display will appear blank, and the timer will stop
any time other than the final three minutes of the final
spin cycle. If the lid is opened in the final three
minutes of the final spin cycle, the timer will continue
to count down to the end of the cycle. When the timer
reaches 0 minutes, the control will return to the
“Ready” mode. See Figure 2.
