INSTALLATION
UNPACKING
Immediately after unpacking the dishwasher, check for possible shipping damage. If this machine is
found to be damaged, save packaging material and contact the carrier within 15 days of delivery.
LOCATION
Prior to installation, verify that the electrical supply agrees with the specications on the machine data
plate, which is located on the top of the door.
Steam generated from normal operation may escape from the door. Wood, laminates, veneers, etc. are
unsuitable materials for use in areas exposed to dishwasher steam and detergents. Stainless steel or
other moisture-resistant shields are recommended for surfaces adjacent to LXe sides and top.
LEVELING
The machine must be level to operate properly. Place the dishwasher in its operating location. Level
the machine before any connections are made. Using a carpenter's level placed diagonally on the rack
tracks, level the machine front to back and side to side by threading the adjustable feet in or out. After
leveling the machine, cover the exposed threads of the adjustable feet with black rubber tubing
supplied. (See separate instructions furnished with machine.)
WATER REQUIREMENTS
Proper water quality can improve ware washing performance by reducing spotting, enhancing
effectiveness of labor and extending equipment life. Water conditions vary from one location to another.
The recommended proper water treatment for effective and efcient use of this equipment will also
vary depending on the local water conditions. Ask your municipal water supplier for details about your
local water conditions prior to installation.
Recommended water hardness is 3 grains of hardness per gallon or less. Higher hardness may cause
excessive formation of lime scale. Water hardness above 3 grains per gallon requires water treatment.
Water treatment has been shown to reduce costs associated with machine cleaning, reduce deliming
of the dishwasher, and reduce detergent usage in the dishwasher.
High iron levels in the water supply can cause staining and may require an iron lter. High
chloride levels in the water supply can cause pitting and may require a chloride removal system. Contact
your local water treatment professional for proper water treatment.
Sediment may require a particulate lter. Dissolved solids may require water treatment such as a water
softener, reverse osmosis system, etc. Contact your local water treatment professional for proper water
treatment.
If an inspection of the dishwasher or booster heater reveals lime buildup after the equipment has been
in service, water treatment is recommended. If a water softener is already in place, ensure there is a
sufcient level of salt. Contact your local Hobart Service ofce for specic recommendations.
