Chapter 4: Using Your Washer

Do not use combustible solvents in the Glassware Washer. If
soiled glassware contains flammable compounds, rinse the
glassware thoroughly prior to placing the glassware into the
washer. Heaters in the washer are very hot and could ignite
flammable solvents.
Non-foaming powder or liquid detergent formulated for labware washers, in
conjunction with adequate hot water, is essential for clean glassware. Labconco
LabSolutions Detergents are recommended. See Appendix A for ordering
information. Use detergents sparingly. Too much detergent, particularly with
softened water may cause etching of the glassware. This appears as a permanent
cloudy film on the glassware.
Fill the main detergent cavity three-fourths full if the water hardness grains per
gallon (GPG) for your water measures 0-4 GPG (soft water). Fill the detergent
cavity completely if your water measures 4 GPG or higher (medium to hard
water). If you use the pre-wash cavity stamped in the washer door, fill it
completely.
Note: To open the detergent dispenser, gently slide the white tab sideways.
The tab may break if it is pulled upward or perpendicular to the door.
Store detergent in a cool, dry place. Immediately replace the detergent container
lid after dispensing. If lumps develop due to exposure to moisture, discard the
detergent according to local regulations.
