GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
(OPERATION)
Note: Read the following instructions carefully. Proper operation of your Jackson
Dishwasher will assure clean and sanitized glasses and dishes, at optimum efficiency. Dish
Preparation:
1. Scrape dishes thoroughly.
2. Pre-wash dishes by soaking or with hose.
3. Place dishes and cups in dish rack, cups upside down.
4. Place glasses and silverware in combination glass-silverware rack, glasses upside down. Scatter
silverware loosely on bottom.
Note: Silverware in the upright position washes and rinses better than lying flat. These
silverware compartment racks are available through your dealer or Service Agency.
Operating Instructions:
1. Install pan strainer and the wash and rinse arms. Close the door and push until the handle latches.
2. Push the On/Fill-Off/Drain switch to the up 'ON/FILL' position. The machine power light will come on and
so will the rinse heaters. The machine will begin to fill automatically and stop by itself.
3. After the machine has completed filling, open the door and put in a rack of soiled dishes. Close the door.
4. After the door has been closed, the cycle light will come on. There will be a 2-second delay before the
wash cycle begins.
5. The machine will wash for 130 seconds and rinse for 15 seconds. After the cycle has finished, the cycle
light will go out.
6. Open the door and remove the sanitized dishes. The machine is ready for another cycle.
7. To manually wash, push -the manual wash switch to the up 'Manual' position. The machine will wash
indefinitely. This function can also be used to delime. To resume normal operation, push the manual
wash switch to the down 'Auto' position.
8. To drain the machine, close the door and latch. Push the On/Fill-Off/Drain switch to the 'OFF' position.
All machine functions will be off. Push On/Fill-Off/Drain switch down to the momentary drain position.
This will begin the drain cycle. After the machine is drained, it will turn itself off.
9. Open the door. Remove and clean the pan strainer and the wash arms.
10. Wash heater protection is provided by two means. Primary protection is given by the water level control
which senses the water level with a probe. If this should fail due to excessive build up on the probe, the
secondary thermal protection will cut out the wash heater before damage occurs.
11. When the secondary heater protection has been used, it will be indicated by the illuminated red reset
light. The following steps are necessary in this situation:
A. Turn off power supply.
B. Open the door and remove the wash and rinse arms and the pan strainer.
C. Locate the probe. It is in the wash sump on the left hand side.
D. Using a deliming compound and a brush, clean the probe.
E. Reinstall the wash and rinse arms and the pan strainer.
F. Push the reset button, located above the reset light.
G. Push On/Fill-Off/Drain switch to the 'ON/FILL' position. The machine should begin
to fill. If it does not and the reset light comes on again, call an authorized service
agency.
Detergent Recommendations and Rinse Additives:
We suggest that you contact your local Detergent Specialist for the correct detergent and rinse additives for
your area. To help you until one can be reached, we suggest that you use a non-foaming dishwasher
detergent, approximately three tablespoons in wash tank when machine is filled and one teaspoon each
cycle or load thereafter. Dump the detergent on the pan strainer. This may have to be increased or
decreased to obtain satisfactory results.
