CLEANING
The machine must be thoroughly cleaned at the end of each working shift or at least daily. Never use
steel wool to clean warewasher surfaces. Use only products formulated to be safe on stainless steel.
Turn off the power switch. Open the machine door(s).
Clean off the dish tables into the dishwasher. Drain the machine by pulling the drain lever (Fig. 11).

Raise the overflow cover and remove the overflow tube. Wash and rinse the overflow tube inside and out.
Remove the pump strainer (if equipped) and clean in a sink.
Thoroughly cleanse and flush the dishwasher interior. Remove remaining soil with a soft cloth or brush
and mild cleanser. Rinse again. Do not allow food soil to accumulate on the tank bottom.
Replace all removed parts.
