To ensure that the dishwasher is properly locked for travel, follow the steps below:
1. Push the center control, located on the face of the dishwasher, until it blinks green. Press down on the key
button to the right of the center button until it turns red and compresses. This denotes the dishwasher is in
“lock down” mode.
To decompress the dishwasher, simply push the key button for five (5) seconds and it will decompress.
Hydro-Hot Heating System
Your Allegro Bus will feature a Hydro-Hot heating system (Figure 4-14) that
provides a continuous, on-demand supply of domestic hot water, as interior zone
heating where and when it is needed. Both heating features are accomplished by
a unique VDC-Powered Diesel-Fired Burner and a VAC-Powered Electric Heating
Element (120 VAC). These two heating sources maintain the temperature of the
Hydro-Hot’s solution of water and antifreeze.
To activate the Hydro-Hot heating system, the hydro-hot switch (labeled “diesel
burner switch”) located in the side cabinet above the driver’s seat must be
activated. By activating this switch, a supply of hot water as well as interior heat
can be provided. The heating feature will be controlled by the thermostat
mounted on the wall. It is operated off the furnace function of the thermostat to provide interior heat. Hot water will be
supplied instantaneously and continuously at any time the diesel burner switch is activated.
If interior heat and hot water are demanded from the Hydro-Hot system at the same time, hot water will
simultaneously take precedence over interior heat; therefore causing the interior heat to shut down and turn off
until the water flow is turned off from water sources.

Warning
The dishwasher must have 110 power or inverter power at all times to be locked
during transit. If not, the dishwasher could disengage during travel.
Note: Should a power failure occur when the dishwasher is operating, the dishwasher will stop. It may be
impossible to open the dishwasher, depending on where it was interrupted in the dishwashing cycle. When the
power is again re-applied, the dishwasher will resume its operation at the point where it was interrupted. When
not in actual use, the dishwasher can be used to store dishes, cups, glasses, and the like; as the dishwasher itself
provides secure storage of these items while in transit.
