Cycles

Auto Hot Start:

Auto Hot Start is initiated by the control when it senses water temperature below 80°F. If the water is below 
80°F after prewash, the unit will circulate for 1-5 minutes (depending on the cycle selected) and then drain 
for 75 seconds. This procedure will repeat up to 4 times or until the water reaches 80°F.

Hot Start Enhancement:

Some models have a Hot Start option which enables or disables the Auto Hot Start.

Added Heat:

When Added Heat Enhancement is selected during Pots & PansLight, or China Crystal cycles, the control 
will run the heating element and main circulation pump for an extra 15 minutes attempting to reach the 
minimum operating temperature.

Heated Dry:

Heated Dry takes 34 minutes for the Normal cycle and 45 minutes for the SaniAutoPots & Pans, and 
China Crystal cycles. There is no heated dry for the Rinse cycle. During Heated Dry, the heater cycles at a 
rate of 60 seconds on and 51 seconds off.

Cycle Explanations and Exceptions:

•  Turbidity response is used during the SaniNormal, and Auto cycles only.

•  Pots & PansLightChina Crystal, and Rinse are timed cycles.

•  Timed cycles can change depending on the water temperature. If the minimum temperature is not met, 

an extended time will be added until the temperature is met or the time expires.

•  Partial drain and fi ll algorithm is used on Normal and Auto cycles only.

•  Auto Hot Start may cause the fi rst prewash to repeat up to 4 times.

• Steam enhancement is shown on the cycle chart. Disabling steam will shorten the cycle time.

• If 

Steam is selected in Normal or Auto cycles, turbidity response will be ignored and cycle will default to 

the heavy soil algorithm.

•  Drain Overlap is a short period where both the wash and drain pumps run simultaneously as the 

circulation cycle ends and draining begins.

•  Drain Pause is a short period between the circulation cycle ending and starting the drain.

Turbidity Response

The turbidity response is measured in DC volts. 4-5 VDC will register light soil and a shorter wash cycle, while 
0-2 VDC will register heavy soil and a longer wash cycle. Sani wash measures the turbidity response during 
the third prewash cycle and adjusts the time based on those measurements. Normal wash measures the 
turbidity response during the fi rst prewash and the prewash before the main wash. If a clean response is 
measured in the fi rst prewash, the cycle will advance directly to the main wash with no drain or fi ll. If a clean 
response is measured in the prewash before the main wash, the control will shorten the active heater time.
