LOOKING AFTER YOUR SALTMATE POWER PACK

Do not carry out any maintenance or repair work other than that shown in this 

operating manual 

or advised by Saltmate, and only use parts recommended by Saltmate. If you do not 

it could 

invalidate your warranty.
•  Do not store pool chemicals in a confined space with your Saltmate. The fumes can breach 

cooling vents and damage vital components.

•  Small insects can also enter cooling vents causing damage to vital components. To avoid this 

happening, routinely spray insect repellent to the surfaces around the power pack.

NO WATER FLOW

Saltmate cells contain a sensor that checks for proper water flow and for safety purposes if 

adequate water flow is not sensed your Saltmate will cease to produce chlorine until the 

problem is resolved.
If this situation occurs, the chlorine output indicator will drop to zero, while RP models also 

have 

a no flow indicator light which will light up if proper water flow is not detected and turn off once 

the problem has been resolved.
