11 INNER BOWL
SmartDrive
™
AquaSmart
™
11.1 Balance Ring
The inner bowl for AquaSmart
™
has a new top balance ring, which has 2 internal chambers
instead of just one as on SmartDrive
™
bowls. Both chambers are ½ filled with water.
The physical appearance of the balance rings changes from a square profile to a curved profile.
11.2 Bowl Base
The new bowl base on large SmartDrive
™
(one with the internal bumps) has only the inner and
middle chambers filled with water.On AquaSmart
™
all 3 chambers are partially filled with water.
IMPORTANT
It is important that the new inner bowl for AquaSmart
™
is only used on AquaSmart
™
models. If the inner bowl is fitted to a SmartDrive
™
, it will cause the bump detect software
not to function correctly, leading to increased cases whereby the inner bowl could hit
against the top deck and cabinet.
Conversely, a SmartDrive
™
inner bowl should not be fitted to AquaSmart
™
.
12 SUSPENSION RODS
The suspension rods on AquaSmart
™
need to
be more robust than the suspension rods used
on previous SmartDrive
™
machines. The top
bracket has lugs to which the straps from the
neck ring attach.
A rubber washer sits midway down the rod, this
helps detergent residue from running down the
rod and into the grease filled damper.
