ADDITIONAL CHECKS AND SETTINGS 

 

 

Display off or not clear 

Proceed as follows if no writing appears on the display and/or any if the display is not very 
clear: 

• 

Check that power socket is powered, the

 power cable 

03

 

is correctly plugged in 

and connected to the steriliser. 

• 

Check 

fuses 

32

.

 Check that the 

main switch 

13

 

is pressed to position “I”. 

• 

Check the fuses on 

electronic power board 

34

• 

If the display is not clear from where you are standing, change reading position or 
angle. If the display is clearer, adjust contrast by means of trimmer 

PT1 

starting from 

your preferred reading position (see chapter DIAGRAMS AND WIRING, Logic 
electronic board). 

 
 

Level probe check 

Level probes 

43

 

of both tanks are simple metal rods fitted into the container to be 

monitored and insulated from it. The probe circuit is closed when liquid is present. 
 

 

 
The presence of fouling or lime scales may create electric continuity between tank metal 
and level probe rod and consequently read the presence of liquid in the tank when the 
tank is empty.
