PROCEDURE FOR RESETTING CONTROL BOARD:
NOTE: The control board must be reset whenever it has been replaced and if basic calibration
has to be repeated (because of an error -- see fault codes on page 2).
1. Remove two (2) screws to open access panel at bottom rear of steamer. Replace control board
if defective.
2. Connect cable 4-pin connector to terminal ST 5 on right side of control board. Attach alligator
clips to ends of black and
exposed wire on wire loop of cable.
3. Turn steamer on to reset control board -- when board has reset, steamer
will flash five (5) times. Turn steamer off.
NOTES: Replacement capacitors (part # 169105) may look slightly differently and have a slightly different
rating than ones used on older steamers. Older control boards may have three terminals ("N", "L" & "Out").
