2.

 

The flow rate is too low.  The product requires a minimum flow rate of 6 
litres per minute. 

3.

 

The hot water temperature is too low.  The water temperature needs to 
be 60oC for a hot wash.  

4.

7.

 

The filter screen in the hot inlet valve of the machine is blocked. 

8.

 

Thermistor  resistance  is  out  of  range.    Resistance  is  10kΩ  @  25  oC.  
Replace if well outside of this range. 

 

Note: If the machine is set to controlled cold, hot water may be required 
to achieve the set temperature of 20 oC. 

 

06 Insufficient Cold Water (no cold) 

Possible causes: 
1.

The cold water inlet hose is connected to the hot water supply. 

4.

 

That there are kinks in the inlet hoses. 

5.

 

The filter on the cold inlet hose at the tap end is blocked. 

6.

 

The filter screen in the cold inlet valve of the machine is blocked. 

7.

 

Thermistor  resistance  is  out  of  range.    Resistance  is  10kΩ  @  25  oC.  
Replace if well outside of this range. 

 

07 Agitate Overload (too full) 

Possible causes: 
1.

 

The product is overloaded. 

2.

 

The user has selected the wrong water level. 

3.

 

The  inner  bowl  assembly  is  jammed  to  the  agitator  with  a  foreign  object
