MAINTENANCE AND UPKEEP:
Servicing should only be carried out by competent engineers.
1. Regularly check the uid level in the water tank and top up if necessary.
2. Check and clean the evaporator and external heat exchanger coils. Build up of dust and dirt can severly eect
the performance of the machine. Clean with compressed air.
3. Regularly inspect the mains cable and plug for signs of damage or wear. Do not operate the machine with a
damaged mains cable.
4. Check that the castors are running freely and that the breaking mechanisms are working correctly.
5. Inspect the connection hose assembly for signs of wear or damage. Replace if necessary.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE:
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Machine fails to operate
Power Failure
Check power on lamp is illuminated.
Check unit is connected to the power supply.
Check plug fuse for failure and correct 13A
rating.
Check Building circuit is not overloaded.
Condensate pump faulty Check condensate pump. Replace if
necessary.
Poor cooling performance.
Cooling not selected Switch cooling on
Thermostat set incorrectly. (Higher than
ambient room temperature) Reset the thermostat. Page6
Coils dirty Clean coils. See Maintenance
Filters dirty. (where tted, optional extra) Clean lters.
Hose connection assembly over 35M Reduce the length of the hose assembly.
Air inlet grills obstructed Remove obstruction.
Water ow restricted
Check the connection hose assembly
forkinks or blockages. Check all water
connections are correctly tted.
Water pump failed Check and replace pump.
High or low pressure switch activated. See below.
Water leaking.
Clogged drain hose to condensate pump. Remove blockage and clean driptray.
Water connections incorrectly tted Check all connections and make good.
External heat exchanger located poorly Move the unit to an area where draining
condensate will not cause a problem.
Damaged water hoses Check all hoses and replace where
necessary.
Compressor stops working. Input voltage too low. Check line voltage.
High or low pressure switch activated. See below
High pressure warning lamp illuminated.
Water tank empty Check tank and rell if necessary.
Ambient room temperature above the
maximum of 40ºC.
Check temperature read-out on the digital
thermostat. Do not run until room cools below
40ºC.
Water ow restricted
Check all water connections and ensure they
are correct.
Check hoses for signs of restrictions and re-
route if necessary.
Water pump failed Check pump and replace.
External heat exchanger fan faulty.
Check electrical connections on the hose
connection assembly. Replace the fan if
necessary.
Low pressure warning lamp illuminated. Refrigerant loss. Contact supplier.
