Has maintenance been carried out?
Ensure the daily strainer maintenance is carried out. Ensure the pump outs occur every 3
months so that any standing sludge is removed. Also seek to prevent any non-
skimmable waste from entering the unit as already advised earlier.
Scrape visible plate waste to bin rather than rinsing this waste into the Grease Guardian.
Stagnant Water
For applications where a connected sink or oven has a very low flow ensure to flush the
Grease Guardian unit with fresh water regularly to reduce stagnant water.

PROBLEM: No power or no time control display.
If the unit trips out or loses power suddenly during use, disconnect the power supply to the
system at the plug outlet immediately and seek service assistance.
Incorrect installation/start up?
Has the unit been installed fully in accordance with the electrical instructions described
earlier. Has the start up procedure also been followed?
Inadequate maintenance and servicing not carried out?
Power outages may occur if the correct pump-out or other agreed service regime is not
followed, whereby excessive amounts of waste have gathered inside the unit and have
affected the performance of the electrical components. Waste that enters the machine
from sinks or appliances (other than pot sinks, dish pe-rinse sinks, combi ovens, wok
cookers) can adversely affect electrical performance or shorten normal operational
lifespan. For example the heater can trip out if it is immersed in waste other than
fats, oils or grease. Or if the heater has not been checked and cleaned every 3 months.
Water ingress?
If any external covers have been damaged or misplaced, or seals or fasteners have been
damaged, or pressure washers are used to clean the external surfaces, moisture may
enter the control panel and can cause electrical faults. The Grease Guardian is Ingress
Protection level IPx4 rated and should not be pressure washed. The unit’s external sur-
faces should normally be cleaned by damp hand cloth when required. Kitchen surface
hand cleaners/polishes are permissible.
Correct weather proofed/internal location?
The unit should never be installed in outside locations which are exposed to temperatures
or weather conditions inconsistent with normal room temperature. Note that sheltering
from rain alone is not adequate, as additionally, condensation inside the control panel can
arise if the unit is exposed to lower external temperatures. Sustained condensation can
actually prove more destructive to the internal electrical components than occasional wa-
ter splashes or spillages.
