Deliming (as required)
WARNING!
After deliming, ensure that ALL residue is
removed. Residue from the deliming agent can:
•
Pose a health hazard;
•
Damage seals and plastic components
inside the dishwasher.
CAUTION
When deliming the interior, use deliming agents
designed for use with commercial dishwashers, and
follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Lime scale deposits will occur over time on the interior
of the dishwasher. Deposits can be minimized by
avoiding the use of a hard water supply. MEIKO
recommends a hardness of 1-3 grains per U.S. gallon.
To begin the deliming process, first ensure that the
machine is turned off and fully drained. This is critical
to ensure that no detergent is present in the wash tank,
which can interfere with the deliming agent.
To turn the machine on, press and hold
or
open the door. The display will turn on.
Press the
key next to the
check mark to
begin the deliming process.
Press the
key next to the
action symbol on
the display.
At the Action menu, press
next to the
or arrows on the display to select
DELIMING
.
The display will show a rotating wheel to indicate the
machine is working. The caption at the bottom of the
display will indicate
FILLING/HEATING
.
After the tank has filled, the display will prompt for the
deliming agent to be added. Follow the instructions of
the deliming agent used to determine the correct
amount. The tank capacity is 2.1 U.S. gals. (8.0 liters).
The display will show a rotating wheel to indicate the
machine is working. The caption at the bottom of the
screen will first show
DELIMING
(along with the
remaining deliming time), followed by
SELF CLEANING
CYCLE
to rinse the interior of remaining deliming agent.
At the end of the procedure, the display will return to
the Action menu. Press the (back) key to return to
the normal display screen.
Open the door and inspect the interior for any remaining
deliming agent residue. If residue is present, remove it
using a soft cloth and hot water; then, run the machine
through one empty cycle.
Press and hold
for 2 seconds, until the display
reads
SHUTDOWN MACHINE?
Then press the
next
to the
check mark to turn the machine off.
