Wash Program Description
The machine o󰀨ers four standard wash programs, and two program options features. The standard
basic wash programs are Cold, Warm, Hot, and Delicate. The program options are Heavy Soil and
Extra Rinse. The options can be added to the standard wash programs in any combination. On coin-
operated models, a di󰀨erent price can be charged for each program, and an incremental price can be
programmed for each of the two option buttons described below.
The Cold, Warm, and Hot wash programs are comprised of three program segments. These programs
begin with the Mainwash which lls to the LOW water level. The duration of the Mainwash can
be adjusted using the machines service mode. The Mainwash water temperature is cold in the
COLD program, warm in the WARM program, and hot in the HOT program. Upon completion of the
Mainwash the machine drains and spins for three-minutes, at which time the softener is dispensed
from the softener container located in the agitator.
Following the Mainwash the machine rells to the HIGH water level for the cold water deep Rinse.
The rinse is followed by a draining and the nal extraction.
The Delicate program consists of a cold water Mainwash with reduced agitation and one cold water
rinse.
Two optional program segments can be added to the standard programs using parameter-register
settings in service mode. The rst option converts all deep rinses to a reduced-water-consumption
spray rinse. The second option is an extra Rinse that is inserted between the rst and last Rinse
and also lls to the HIGH water level. LOW and HIGH water levels can also be adjusted in service
mode.
The LOW and HIGH water levels, as well as the duration of the wash segment of the standard
programs, are also adjustable in the service mode parameter registers.
For OPL use, a Rinse and Spin wash program is available by pressing the EXTRA RINSE button
with no wash programs selected. This optional program must be enabled during machine setup.
Rinse and Spin is comprised of a rinse followed by an extraction.
Heavy Soil option button
The Heavy Soil increases the Mainwash time of the Cold,
Warm, Hot Programs. Heavy Soil is not available when the
Delicate Program is selected.
Extra Rinse option button
The Extra Rinse option adds one additional cold water rinse
to any wash program. The extra rinse repeats the second-
to-last rinse.
Program End
The display will show “donE” when the program ends.

Coin-Operated Machines
On coin-operated machines, prices for programs and options must be programmed during machine
setup, and can be modied at any time using the service mode.
The machine must be set to COIN MODE (see OPERATING MODE section).
Prices can be programmed as dollars and cents or as the number of coins or tokens required to
start. There are four wash programs COLD, WARM, HOT, and DELICATE and two options HEAVY
SOIL and EXTRA RINSE that can be programmed to the same or di󰀨erent prices. The option prices
are added to the base prices of the COLD, WARM, HOT, and DELICATE programs. The Heavy Soil
option cannot be used when the DELICATE program is selected.
PRICE PROGRAMMING
1. To enter the service mode, unlock and remove the coin box.
2. Press and release the Service Switch located in the rear of the coin vault to enter service mode.

3. Press one of the six program or option buttons, for which the price is to be programmed. The
current price for that selection is displayed.
4. Press the START button. The price will blink, indicating it can now be changed.
5. Use the four program-selection buttons; COLD, WARM, HOT, and DELICATE to change each
of the four digits in the price. Each button increments a corresponding digit, left to right, in
the price. The digits “roll over” from 9 to 0 without a󰀨ecting the other digits. The left most digit
cannot be set to “0”, but can be blanked out completely.
6. When the desired price is displayed, press START. The display will stop blinking indicating the
new value has been saved.
7. Repeat steps 3 through 6 for each remaining wash program and option. The option buttons only
make adjustments to the basic programs, and are typically set to 0.25 or 0.50, for example.
8. When all prices have been entered, press the Service Switch in the coin-vault, to exit service
mode.
9. Check the newly entered prices by selecting each program without, and then with, the option
selections.
Register 26 (“No Decimal in Price”) determines how prices are displayed by the machine. When
set to “00” (default), prices are set and displayed with a decimal (e.g. “3.00”). When set to “01”, the
decimal point is turned o󰀨, and prices are set and displayed as “number of coins or tokens” required
(e.g. “12”). In either case, the value of each coin drop is stored in Register 33 “Coin Value 1” and
Register 34 “Coin Value 2” and determine how much the remaining price will be reduced each time
a coin is deposited. The coin-value registers can be adjusted to accommodate any currency. See
instructions later in this manual to change the setting.

DISCOUNT-PRICE “PROMOTION PROGRAMMING
The washer is capable of applying a scheduled “Promotional” percentage-discount to the vend
price of a program. Up to four di󰀨erent discount events and percentages can be set using the
washer’s built-in Real Time Clock (RTC). Alternatively, one preset discount can be turned on and o󰀨
using an optionally-installed, external signal provided by a clock-driven relay or switch. This signal
can activate the discount on multiple washers, simultaneously. Both options require setup via the
service registers, access to which is described in the Service Mode section of this manual.
During machine setup, the promotional discount is represented by a two digit percentage (%%) and
can range from 0% (no discount) to “A0” = 100% (free wash). When Promotion pricing is active,
the displayed vend price equals the sum of the discounted program price rounded up to the next
multiple of register “033” (Coin value 1) plus the selected option price, which are not discounted. For
example, if Coin Value 1 = 0.25 and a 50% Promotion discount is applied to a COLD (1.00) wash
program with a HEAVY SOIL (0.25) option selected (1.25 total), the displayed vend price would be
“0.75.” ($1 x 50% + $0.25).
To use Promotion percentage discount pricing the washer must be set to “COIN MODE” operation.
Promotion pricing can be used with the washer set to either Decimal or No Decimal in price, Reg 26
= “00” or “01.
PROMOTION PRICING VIA THE REAL TIME CLOCK (RTC)
The RTC and Promotion pricing times are set and displayed in 24hr format. (e.g. 1:15 PM = 13:15).
The promotion days of the week are represented by a two digit number (nn). The RTCs built in
calendar adjusts for leap years. Promotion pricing set up requires setting the RTC and up to four
pairs of Promotional start and stop times and percentages.

Inspect the interior of the machine (during an actual wash cycle to ensure that no
leaks are noticed) by:
- Turning o󰀨 the main power switch of the machine.
- Remove the service panel from the front of the machine.
- Inspect all internal hoses, seals and gaskets for signs of leakage.
Repair as necessary.
