5. If storing machine in freezing temperatures, follow
the FREEZE PROTECTION instructions below.

FREEZE PROTECTION

1. Drain the solution tank and recovery tank of all
water.
2. Pour 1 gallon / 4 liters of recreational vehicle (RV)
antifreeze into the solution tank at full strength.
Do not dilute.
FOR SAFETY: Avoid eye contact with antifreeze.
Wear safety glasses.
3. Turn the machine power on and operate the
solution flow system. Turn the machine off when
the red RV antifreeze is visible.
If your machine is equipped with the off--aisle
wand option, operate the the off--aisle wand for a
few seconds to protect the pump.
Continue with the freeze protection procedure if
machine is equipped with the FaST or ec- -H2O
system.
ec- H2O Model:
Press and release the flush switch on the ec- -H2O
module to cycle the antifreeze through ec- -H2O
system (Figure 74). When the antifreeze is visible,
press the switch again to turn off the module.
FIG. 74
IMPORTANT: Before operating machine, the
antifreeze must be flushed from the module as
described below.
If the antifreeze is not properly flushed from the
ec- -H2O system, the ec- -H2O module may detect an
error and not function (ec- -H2O switch indicator light
will turn red). If this occurs, reset key and repeat the
flush procedure as described below.
Flushing antifreeze from ec- -H2O module:
1. Drain the antifreeze from the solution tank into a
bucket.
2. Fill the solution tank with cool water until full (See
FILLING SOLUTION TANK).
