Jeyes A4 Auto Aluminium Safe Dishwash Detergent
Jeyes A4 Auto Aluminium Safe Dishwash Detergent is a professional liquid detergent for automatic dishwashing. The 10-litre pack supplies the wash stage for suitable pans, trays and other kitchenware in commercial catering settings. Its YA04 identification helps staff distinguish it from separate rinse aids and other Jeyes kitchen chemicals.
The formulation is suitable for aluminium when used as directed in an appropriate automatic dishwasher. Check that the individual item is approved for machine washing, including any coatings, handles or other components. Aluminium compatibility does not mean the concentrated product should be used neat for manual cleaning or soaking.
A4 combines detergents with alkaline builders and ingredients that keep loosened soil dispersed during washing. It works across different water conditions, with stain control and resistance to hard-water deposits. Correct loading, a suitable programme and routine machine care remain part of achieving a consistent result.
Use A4 only through Jeyes Professional electronic dosing equipment, with the settings specified for your installation. Browse our commercial dishwasher detergents when selecting wash-stage supplies, and our kitchen cleaning range for separate cleaning tasks. Keep the detergent feed clearly identified and use a separate compatible rinse aid where the machine requires one.

Directions for Use
1. Confirm the installation and washware
Read the supplied label, safety data sheet and machine instructions. Confirm that the dishwasher uses the specified Jeyes Professional electronic dosing equipment. Check the care instructions for each item, remove loose food and load suitable kitchenware so the machine can wash and rinse it effectively.
2. Connect the detergent safely
Use the designated detergent supply and the installation's connection procedure. The concentrate is corrosive and can cause severe skin burns and eye damage. Wear suitable chemical-resistant gloves and eye protection, avoid splashes, and follow the current safety sheet and workplace assessment when handling or changing containers.
3. Dose and run the wash programme
Dispense only through Jeyes Professional electronic dosing equipment, using the setting specified for the installation. Do not guess a hand-mixing ratio or pour neat concentrate over items. Run the appropriate complete wash and rinse programme, then check the finished kitchenware before returning it to service.
4. Store and maintain the supply
Keep unused product securely stored in its original labelled container, closed when not in use and protected from freezing. Keep it separate from strong acids and oxidising products. Maintain the machine and dosing equipment as instructed, and keep the matching safety information available to staff dealing with replenishment or spills.

FAQs
What is Jeyes A4 used for?
A4 is the detergent used during automatic washing of suitable pans, trays and kitchenware. It is intended for professional kitchens with the specified Jeyes dosing installation. It is not a manual washing-up liquid or a general surface-cleaning product.
Can I wash aluminium with A4?
The manufacturer identifies A4 as aluminium safe for its intended machine-washing application. The item itself must also be suitable for the dishwasher and selected programme. Follow its care instructions, and do not treat the compatibility claim as permission to soak aluminium in neat concentrate.
Does A4 work in hard water?
A4 is formulated to work across water conditions and help control hard-water deposits and staining. Correct dosing and machine maintenance still matter. Continue to follow any water-treatment and descaling procedures specified for the dishwasher; detergent does not replace those separate maintenance tasks.
What dilution or dosing pump should I use?
The manufacturer specifies Jeyes Professional electronic dosing equipment only. Follow the supplied instructions and the settings established for that installation; no universal manual dilution is given here. Confirm the correct setup with the equipment or chemical supplier if the dosing arrangement is unclear.
Does A4 replace a rinse aid?
No. A4 provides the wash-stage detergent, while rinse aid has a separate role where required by the machine. Use a compatible rinse aid in the correct supply, keep the feeds clearly labelled and avoid interchanging the connections during replenishment.
Is aluminium-safe detergent safe to handle without protection?
No. Material compatibility in the intended wash process does not remove the hazards of the concentrated chemical. A4 concentrate can cause severe skin burns and eye damage. Follow the supplied label and matching safety sheet, including suitable gloves and eye protection when handling the product.
