Safety Information  
Explanation of Safety Messages  
Important Safety Instructions  
Precautionary statements (“DANGER,” “WARNING”  
and “CAUTION”), followed by specific instructions,  
are found in this manual and on machine decals. These  
precautions are intended for the personal safety of the  
operator, user, servicer and those maintaining the  
machine.  
WARNING  
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock,  
serious injury or death to persons when  
using your washer, follow these basic  
precautions:  
W023  
DANGER  
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.  
DANGER indicates the presence of a  
hazard that will cause severe personal  
injury, death, or substantial property  
damage if the danger is ignored.  
2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in  
the INSTALLATION manual for the proper  
grounding of the washer.  
3. Do not wash textiles that have been previously  
cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with  
gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, dry-  
cleaning solvents, or other flammable or  
explosive substances as they give off vapors that  
could ignite or explode.  
WARNING  
WARNING indicates the presence of a  
hazard that can cause severe personal  
injury, death, or substantial property  
damage if the warning is ignored.  
4. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or  
other flammable or explosive substances to the  
wash water. These substances give off vapors that  
could ignite or explode.  
5. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be  
produced in a hot water system that has not been  
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS  
IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not  
been used for such a period, before using a  
washing machine or combination washer-dryer,  
turn on all hot water faucets and let the water  
flow from each for several minutes. This will  
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is  
flammable; do not smoke or use an open flame  
during this time.  
CAUTION  
CAUTION indicates the presence of a  
hazard that will or can cause minor  
personal injury or property damage if the  
caution is ignored.  
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”  
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.  
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” is used  
to inform the reader of specific procedures where  
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure  
is not followed.  
6. Do not allow children to play on or in the washer.  
Close supervision of children is necessary when  
the washer is used near children. This is a safety  
rule for all appliances.  
NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate  
installation, operation, maintenance or servicing  
information that is important but not hazard  
related.  
7. Before the washer is removed from service or  
discarded, remove the door to the washing  
compartment.  
8. Do not reach into the washer if the wash drum is  
moving.

Introduction  
Harnessing  
Introduction  
Wiring harnesses are modular – harnesses common to  
various configurations are similar, while those specific  
to a certain configuration can be added. There are  
harnesses for inputs to the control unit, for outputs  
from the control power/output unit to the machine  
components, and for the main incoming power to the  
control power/output unit.  
The “B” electronic control is composed of the  
electronic control unit and the control fuse board with  
wiring harness. Only an authorized person should look  
inside the machine. First TURN OFF POWER, open  
lid and remove any cover present. The components are  
described below.  
Electronic Control Unit  
Communications  
This portion of the control contains the “intelligence” –  
the micro-controller and the miscellaneous components  
on the printed circuit (PC) board. The board has a  
metal cover, which MUST be in place at all times  
during machine operation. Operation of the machine  
without this cover installed will void the warranty.  
The control will accept communications with a Card  
Reader in order to perform vending transactions when  
a card is inserted to pay for cycles. The Card Reader  
can also allow the owner to program and collect audit  
information.  
For detailed information on the Card Reader  
Communications, refer to the third party Card Reader  
manufacturer.  
The control unit monitors and responds to input, gives  
information about the status of the washer and  
monitors and responds to inputs from the user  
interface (keypad). The control provides signals to the  
control output unit, which in turn operates the  
components that control the machine functions. This is  
located behind the machine control panel.  
Control Output Fuse Board  
This portion of the control contains the power supply  
for the control unit, and also the switching devices  
which power the components in the machine, all of  
which are on the output PC board. The switching  
devices are controlled by the control unit, and are solid  
state.

Maintenance  
Care of Stainless Steel  
Remove dirt and grease with detergent and water.  
Thoroughly rinse and dry after washing.  
Remove discoloration or heat tint from  
overheating by scouring with a powder or by  
employing special chemical solutions.  
Avoid contact with dissimilar metals to prevent  
galvanic corrosion when salty or acidic solutions  
are present.  
Do not leave sanitizers or sterilizing solutions on  
stainless steel equipment for prolonged periods  
of time.  
Do not allow salty or acidic solutions to  
evaporate and dry on stainless steel. Wipe clean  
of any residues.  
When an external chemical supply is used, ensure  
no siphoning of chemicals occurs when the  
washer-extractor is not in use. Highly  
concentrated chemicals can cause severe damage  
to stainless steel and other components with the  
machine. Damage of this kind is not covered by  
the manufacturer’s warranty. Locate the pump  
below the washer-extractor’s injection point to  
prevent siphoning of chemicals into the machine.  
Rub in the direction of the polish lines or “grain”  
of the stainless steel to avoid scratch marks when  
using abrasive cleaners. Use stainless steel wool  
or soft non-metal bristle brushes. Do not use  
ordinary steel wool or steel brushes.  
If the stainless steel appears to be rusting, the  
source of the rust may actually be an iron or steel  
part not made of stainless steel, such as a nail or  
screw. Tip: Paint all carbon steel parts with a  
heavy protective coating. Stainless steel fasteners  
should be used whenever possible.
