Remedy of faults

Malfunction
The unit does not switch on
The unit cannot be switched on, a warning sig-
nal has sounded.
Water vapour is escaping from the unit.
No suction or reduction in suction
Low suction capacity
The tank is not emptying, the vacuum head
keeps switching off.

Maintenance and cleaning

W A R N I N G
Possible death or severe injury from hazardous electrical voltage!
• Prior to reaching into the water, isolate (switch off and disconnect) all units/devices used in the water.
• Isolate the device (disconnect from the power supply) before carrying out any work on it.
Cleaning the container
Prerequisite: The tank is open. (→ Opening/closing the tank)
• Clean the debris collection bag under running water. (→ Cleaning the debris collection bag)
Clean the following parts with clean water and a soft brush:
• Intake distributor
• Discharge pump
• Storz coupling type C
– Regularly clean seals, including that of the Storz coupling type C hoses. Soiled seals are subject to increased
wear, leading to leaks.
• Inside of the tank
– Recommendation: Place the vacuum head next to the unit (do not open the plug connectors), lay the tank on the
ground and rinse out with running water.

Cause
No mains voltage
Pump housing, discharge hose or non-return
valve clogged.
Defective pump
Plug connector of the pump cable open
Moisture in the plug connector of the pump ca-
ble
Discharge hose is too high up.
The water level in the tank is too high.
• The float in the vacuum head has closed the
intake for longer than 15 s.
• The float in the vacuum head has closed the
intake three times within 60 s.
In cold weather condensate forms in the unit,
which is released in the form of water vapour.
No mains voltage
Excessive height difference between water
level and unit
Debris collection bag is full.
Dirt clogging the foam filter, suction tube or
suction hose
Non-return valve jammed or soiled
Slide on the suction handle is open.
Increased tube friction resistance
Excessive suction depth Due to the design the
suction capacity reduces from a suction depth
of 2 m.
• Discharge hose kinked
• The discharge hose is too high (max. 2 m
higher than the unit).
• The discharge hose is too long (max. 20 m).
Discharge hose or non-return valve clogged
with dirt
The discharge pump is clogged.
Remedy
Switch on mains voltage
Remove dirt
Replace the pump.
Close the plug connector.
Open the plug connector and allow it to dry.
Route the discharge hose in a lower position
(max. 2 m above the base of the unit)
Clean the tank.
• Ensure that the float can move freely.
To reset the malfunction: Switch off the unit
and then switch it on again.
This is normal. No remedy necessary
Check the mains voltage.
Set up the vacuum cleaner on ground that is
not much higher than the water level.
Empty the debris collection bag.
Remove dirt.
Clean
Close the slide on the suction handle.
Keep the suction hose as short and flat as pos-
sible.
Reduce the suction depth
Route the discharge hose correctly.
• Remove dirt from the discharge hose.
• Clean the non-return valve.
• Clean the discharge pump.
• Clean the non-return valve.
