6.1 Safety notes
Warning
When using chemicals, adhere to the safety notes and recommended dosages printed on the
packaging.
Wear protective clothing, protective gloves and protective goggles when handling chemicals.
Caution
Only use products which are suitable for commercial dishwashing machines. Such products are
marked accordingly. We recommend using products developed by Winterhalter. These products
are specially adapted for Winterhalter dishwashing machines.
Do not mix different detergent products as this could result in crystallisation and consequently
cause irreparable damage to the detergent dosing device (see X 10.5).
Do not fill the storage tanks for rinse aid with detergent and vice versa.
Do not use any foaming products, e.g. hand soap, soft soap, manual wash-up cleaner. These
products must not be allowed into the machine, even as a result of pre-treatment of the dishes.
6.2 Rinse aid
Rinse aid is required so that the water on the dishes drains off as a thin film and dries quickly after washing.
Rinse aid is dosed into the machine's boiler automatically, either from a storage tank integrated in the ma-
chine or an external storage tank. The rinse aid dosing device is integrated into the machine. The dosing
quantity is set by the service technician authorised by Winterhalter when the machine is installed.
INFO: The rinse aid dosing device is not part of the scope of delivery for all machines.
A display on the screen indicates when integrated storage tanks are empty (X 14.1). Exter-
nal storage tanks have to be fitted with a suction tube with level control if a display on the
screen is required to show when the filling level drops.
6.3 Detergent
Detergent is required to remove food residue and soiling from the dishes. Detergent can be dosed in the
following ways:
− manually as detergent powder.
− automatically from an integrated storage tank by an integrated detergent dosing device.
− automatically from an external storage tank by and integrated or externally fitted detergent dosing device.
INFO: The detergent dosing device is not part of the scope of delivery for all machines.
