Mounted in the base of the machine, this is an electronic device that monitors and controls all
components within the appliance.

The Pressure switch controls the overall volume of water in the tub and signals to the module when
the heater can be turned on. If the pressure switch is not in the full position, the heater will not be
energised.

The motor is a synchronous motor, the pump housing connects directly to the sump housing
assembly and supplies direct water pressure to the spray arm.

Heater
1200W, locates in a metal casing within the sump.

Heater and Pressure Sensor

Heater Pressure Sensor


Attached to the heater is a safety device protecting the heating element.
When the wash motor starts, the pressure sensor is closed by water pressure, this signals the module
to switch the heater on. Minimum operating pressure is 1 Bar. In the event of the wash pump not
starting, the module would not switch the heater on (water pressure below 1 Bar.).

Drain Pump & Water Outlet


The drain pump is a separate unit fixed to the sump moulding assembly. It is operated by means of
a synchronous motor and is controlled by the module. There is an Anti-Siphon tube between the
pump and the outlet hose. A rubber valve is fitted into the anti-siphon tube to prevent loss of water
during washing (the rubber valve is located behind the fixing nut in the tub).

Outlet Hose
Hose to Drain Pump Connection Rubber Valve
Anti-Siphon

Detergent & Rinse Aid Assembly


Detergent and rinse aid is automatically released during the programme.
The release mechanism is activated by means of a solenoid. This in turn operates a plunger and
lever assembly, thus releasing detergent or rinse aid as required.
The dispenser incorporates a single solenoid.
Providing the dispenser lid is closed before use: -
• The first time the solenoid is energised, the detergent lid opens;
• The second time the solenoid is energised, rinse aid is dispensed.
Note: - If the detergent lid is NOT closed prior to use, rinse aid would be injected each time he
solenoid is energised.

The amount of rinse aid dose age can be adjusted. Adjust lever
Position 4, is the default normal position. (Rinse)
Increase the dose age (turn dial to a higher number), if drops of
water are still present.
Reduce the dose age (turn dial to a lower position), if there are
whitish sticky stains on dishes or a bluish film on glasses.
Note: - If multi-function tablets are being used, rinse aid is not
required and the dispenser should be set to Position 1.

Flow Meter
Located in the rear of the base between the inlet water valve and
air break, the flow meter controls the quantity of water entering the
machine. As water passes through the flow meter, a signal on every
rotation is counted by the module, which switches the water valve
off, when the correct amount of water has entered the machine.

Anti Flood Device


Consisting of a polystyrene float and micro switch.
Leaking water into the base panel operates the float
switch, which when made, sends a signal to the
module, aborting the cycle, bringing on the drain pump
and displaying a fault code (see page 16).

WATER SOFTENING & REGENERATION

Stored Regeneration Water

Salt Unit

The ICD661 has a water softener in the base of the machine.


This unit softens the water as it enters the machine, salt can be added and refilled by removing the
Salt Cap Lid in the bottom of the tank. The 'Low Salt' lamp on the console, will advise when the salt
requires to be re filled.
Regeneration. For the water softener to function correctly, the machine regenerates during every cycle
(A salt solution is passed through the resin), this happens during the drying stage of every cycle.

The regeneration process is as follows.: -


1. The regeneration solenoid valve opens.
2. Water in the Air Break (this has built up during previous filling phases), enters the salt container
pushing the water which is already saturated with salt into the resin container.
3. The salty water stays in the resin container for a few minutes.
4. A short period of filling and draining follows to flush away any residue.
5. There is another period of filling and draining.
6. Regeneration finished.

DRYING
Drying is done by evaporation. During the final hot rinse, the dishes are subjected to high temperature
and an injection of rinse aid.
Drying then takes place in two stages: -
1. With water in the tank;
2. With the tank empty (water drained out).
Note: - Opening the door before the end of the cycle will adversely affect drying performance.
