Operating Issues

In the unlikely event that your system shuts itself down for any reason, you must identify and correct
the problem that has caused the safety system to operate before allowing anyone to use the iCool.
Never restart without identifying and correcting any fault.
MiPod Not Cooling or Heating
Your iCool has several safety systems including one that
prevents the gas pressure reaching a dangerous high level.
This can only happen if the machine is extremely overheated,
in which case the safety valve will vent the refrigeration gas to
maintain a safe situation.
If the machine has been operated in very hot conditions, in
a confined space or if the airflow has been blocked or partly
blocked for a certain amount of time, or if it's placed too close
to a wall, towel, source of heat or other object, it may cause the
safety system to operate and release the refrigeration gas.
Damage resulting by any of those reasons will not be
covered under warranty.
Cold only models: If your chiller is running normally but hasn't
changed temperatures after more than 45 minutes, please
make sure that the Target Temp is lower than the actual
pool temp. Cold only models do not have a heating capacity
therefore the temperature of the pool must be higher than the
pre-selected temperature.
If your MiPod is not cooling or heating at all but seems to be
running correctly, it may most likely be out of refrigeration gas
and needs to be re-gassed. Re-gassing can be done by your
local refrigeration technician.
Once re-gassed, you must absolutely provide enough
ventilation to keep the machine within a safe operating
temperature.

"System Too Hot" Warning
Your MiPod can move large amounts of heat per hour.
Naturally this heat has to be removed into the air surrounding
the system. The powerful fan can normally handle this with
ease, however if the air flow around the iCool is restricted so
that the heat can not escape, or the outside air temperature is
more than 45ºC, eventually the system will reach the limit of
it's safe operating range. If the temperature inside the cabinet
reaches 70ºC the safety system will shut it down, sound an
alarm and display the warning screen.
Please make sure that the area has a good flow of fresh air
and that the condenser fins of the MiPod are not covered or
restricted. On very hot days when the air temperature is more
than 45ºC it may not be possible to run the system at full
power due to the excessive heat.
Cooling a pool that has previously been heated can also cause
a heat overload warning and shut down. This will only occur
if the pool is still above 30-35ºC. It is good practice to allow
the heat to reduce naturally to below 30ºC before starting the
cooling cycle. This also saves a lot of electricity.
