  • Page 42 Additional recommendations (please read carefully): Additional recommendations (please read carefully): 1.The electronic valves have input and output connections. HYDROSTIK cartridges should only be connected to the input valve. If connected differently, the system will not function properly. 2. To avoid failure of the control box which can be caused by battery power leakage, please disconnect the lithium battery from the control box after use.
  • Page 43 Troubleshooting 1.After turning on the electronic control box switch, the red light in the control box flashes, while the green light disappears. This indicates the Li-battery is drained and needs to be charged. Solution: 1) Charge the battery. 2) Check the battery connection to the fuel cell system and reconnect it again 2) Check the battery connection to the fuel cell system and reconnect it again.
  • Page 44 Troubleshooting (continued) 4. While the car is running, the red light inside the electronic control box turns on and the green light turns off. This is a warning sign that the fuel cell voltage is low. Solution: 1) Canister is empty, use fully charged canisters. 2) Check the connection between the canister and the pressure regulator 2) Check the connection between the canister and the pressure regulator.
