deployed.
• Functions and settings of the FC control
system, see the FC manual.
If there is no heat, check the following:
• Functions and settings of the FC control
system, see the FC manual.
For units with electrical heating, also check the
following:
• Power supply to electric heater coil; check
fuses and circuit-breaker (if any).
• That the overheat protection has not been
deployed.
For units with a water coil, also check the
following:
• That the water coil is air free.
• That there is sufficient water flow and
pressure.
• That incoming water is heated adequately.
If the fault cannot be rectified, please contact a
qualified service technician.
Residual current circuit breaker (E)
When the installation is protected by means of
a residual current circuit breaker, which trips
when the appliance is connected, this may be
due to moisture in the heating element. When
an appliance containing a heater element has
not been used for a long period or stored in
a damp environment, moisture can enter the
element.
