GM Machine Operation

Service 0800 782 754
Parts 09 829 0930

Turn machine on at wall. Fit scrap tray, filter, upstand and shut door.
Press On/Off Key for 3 Seconds

Start key glows white as machine fills. If door is open then the start key glows
purple

Once full, rinse heating starts. Start key glows orange while heating.
Machine can be started when machine is heating. NOTE: If rinse temperature
is not sufficient cycle countdown will stop at 22 seconds. Washing continues
until rinse reaches temperature required for sanitization and countdown then
resumes.

Start key glows green when machine is fully heated. For different cycles press
the UP and DOWN arrows: Light, Medium, Heavy, Manual or Drain.

Close door/Press start key to start cycle. When manual cycle is selected
machine will continue washing until START button is pressed. Rinsing and
draining follow washing to complete cycle.

Start key glows red during cycle. Pressing Start key again terminates cycle
without rinse. Timer counts down to double zero and flashes 00 at cycle end
until door is opened.

SHUT DOWN - EVERY NIGHT

Press UP or DOWN keys to select Drain cycle. Remove drain upstand and shut
the door. Press START key to start Drain cycle. Machine drains for 100 seconds
with a cleaning rinse mid-cycle. When Draining is complete machine goes into
Standby mode. Remove upstand, filter basket and scrap tray; rinse clean and
replace.

DAILY CLEANING

The machine must be drained and cleaned at the end of each day.

Drain the machine as per the shut down instructions.

Remove, clean and replace filters.

Regularly check the wash and rinse jets and clean if necessary.

MAINTENANCE

Regular servicing of the dishwasher is essential for high

performance, efficient operation and long machine life.

Contact us for information on a maintenance programs.

PRE-RINSING

Pre-scraping of dishes is required by Food Hygiene Regulations. The best method is to pre-rinse with
warm water with a Fisher Pre-rinse Unit - or alternatively by scraping or dunking in water. Cutlery
should be pre-soaked in warm water, preferably containing cutlery pre-soak compound - refer your
chemical supplier.

RACKING PROCEDURES

Do not overload racks or cutlery containers, minimise the overlap of crockery. Wash cutlery unsorted,
handles down. Cycle times are short and water consumption per cycle low – so there is no advantage
in overloading racks.

CYCLE TIMES

The GM has a 1, 2, 3 minute cycle and extended manual cycle.

CHEMICAL

Correct type and quantity of detergent is essential for good results. Use good quality chemicals and
regularly check containers. Discuss the use of drying agent and cutlery pre soak solution with your
chemical supplier. Detergent & Rinse Fluid concentration can be changed by adjusting dispensing time
on the keypad (refer to page 8 User Programming). Prime detergent line by opening door with wash
tank empty (at installation or after draining) then switch machine on. Detergent pump will operate and
prime the line. Following priming, machine power must be switched off to reset for filling

DRYING

Single tank commercial dishwashers do not have a drying cycle. However, the machines do rinse at
high temperatures which promotes fast drying particularly when drying agents are used.
At the end of the cycle promptly remove the rack from the machine - leave the rack on the bench for 2
to 3 minutes before emptying.
