NEWLY DESIGNED TO LOOK<br />
NO ONE HAS FEWER REPAIRS<br />
Your customers have a higher standard of clean. That's why our dishwashers<br />
are equipped with the improved PowerScour™ option that utilizes more targeted<br />
spray jets to tackle tough, baked-on messes without soaking or scrubbing.<br />
Plus, the Sensor cycle uses just the right amount of water, energy and time.<br />
So no matter what's on your customers' plates, we've got them covered.<br<a title="Sept '11 page 1" href="http://viewer.zmags.com/publication/91b389f8?page=1"> The RetailObserver 2764 N. Green Valley Pkwy. S</a>
