Troubleshooting Tip!
A good way to isolate the problem is to remove the
couplings from the insulated tubing attached to the reservoir. To do this simply
turn off the unit, pull off (or cut off) the couplings, place the end of the tubes
over a sink and then turn the system on. If water flows freely, there is an
obstruction in the coupling, vest, head cap, wrap, blanket, seat, or bladder.
Couplings can become blocked with minerals, hair, etc. Use a paper clip to clear
the blockage. A new coupling may be necessary. To reattach the couplings
simply cut the tubing back to unused tubing and push the coupling back into the
tube. See coupling pictures on page 1.
If water IS flowing out the top water return tube:
• Make sure the reservoir is filled with ice. Note the line inside the cooling reservoir.
• Ensure that the temperature control knob is turned to maximum cold (“COLDEST”)
• If the Chiller System has been purchased, check the chiller for proper operation.
Refer to the chiller manual.
If the unit is leaking at the connections:
If a leak exists, turn off the unit. Disconnect and reconnect the couplings, make
sure both sides are clicked in properly. When connecting tabbed couplings ensure
that the release platform on the female coupling is pressed down prior to insertion.
If the couplings have been replaced be sure the tubing was cut back to unused
tubing before inserting the barbs.
NOTE: Couplings have rubber “O” rings that can become worn and dysfunctional.
Replacement couplings may need to be purchased from Polar Products.
