Key Takeaways:
- Automated washing relies on six key factors: Temperature, Action, Chemistry, Coverage, Time and Soil.
- Soil type, quantity and condition determine the best cleaning chemistry and process.
- Rack design, accessories and load positioning ensure all surfaces are properly cleaned.
- Common errors include wrong water temperatures, incompatible chemistries, overloading and poor accessories.
- Use high-quality water for final rinses and dry thoroughly to prevent spots and microbial growth.
