The following notes apply to all cycle sheets where indicated in the NOTES column of the cycle
sheet. When there is a contradiction, the cycle sheet itself has priority.
WATER FILL NOTES
A
“WATER TEMP” of “WASH” means that the valves are controlled by the temperature selection
from the WASH/RINSE TEMP key. HOT = hot water valve on, COLD = cold water valve on,
and WARM = both hot and cold valves on.
In the notes below, “pressure switch” refers to the operating pressure switch. “PS
CONTROLLED” refers to an operation that is controlled by the pressure switch. “TIMED FILL”
refers to an operation that bypasses the operating pressure switch input to continue filling for a
limited time specified.
1. FILL is HOT, WARM (both HOT and COLD valves on), or COLD water, selectable by the
WASH/RINSE TEMP key. Fills are through the detergent dispenser unless otherwise noted.
Fills are controlled by the operating pressure switch, unless otherwise noted. The cycle time
is not stalled while filling unless otherwise noted.
2. FILL is HOT, WARM (both HOT and COLD valves on), or COLD water, selectable by the
WASH/RINSE TEMP key. Fills are through the detergent dispenser unless otherwise noted.
3. Bleach dispenser time is 3 seconds, using cold water only.
4. Fill for 30 seconds, shut off for 15 seconds, and fill for the remaining 15 seconds.
5. All fills are cold from this step onwards unless otherwise noted.
6. Spray rinse -- available only when warm rinse is selected. This is defined as a 25 second
warm fresh fill 5 seconds after the beginning of the step.
7. Bleach fill on for 10 seconds, followed by a water fill through the dispenser noted on the
cycle sheet. Note that this is not needed in the RINSE phase if a 2
ND
RINSE phase has done
this.
8. Fill is cold fresh water spray that bypasses the pressure switch.
CYCLE TIME NOTES
Times given under the DURATION column are in MM:SS format, where MM is minutes and SS
is seconds, unless otherwise noted. Total time does not include time for VAR duration steps,
pauses, spin-to-spin nutates, or pauses between nutate-to-spins or spin-to-nutates unless
otherwise noted.
9. The cycle time is stalled during filling. To reflect possible cycle time stalls, a “+” is added to
the duration column for this step.
10. Soil Level is selected at default settings with the flexibility to modify it by one-minute
intervals.
11. Total Estimate Time Remaining does not count this step. Duration is denoted in
parentheses.
12. This step is only added if STAIN TREAT is active.
13. If selected EXTEND SPIN will add 3 minutes to the duration of this step.
PUMP DRAIN/RECIRC NOTES
14. CND stands for Controlled Neutral Drain. During this step, if the pressure switch is satisfied
the machine will drop out of spin and into neutral drain until the pressure switch is reset. The
cycle time is STALLED in this step. To reflect possible cycle time stalls, a “+” is added to the
duration column for this step. Note that if spinning, there may be a short spin-to-spin nutate
if the cycle is stalled.
15. Pump drain is turned off during final fluff and plate leveling.
