General Symptoms - EAS ELECTRIC ETHKH160 Manual De Instrucciones

CAUTION
When carrying out an inspection on the switch box of the
unit, always make sure that the main switch of the unit is
switched off.
When a safety device was activated, stop the unit and find out why
the safety device was activated before resetting it. Under no
circumstances safety devices may be bridged or changed to a
value other than the factory setting. If the cause of the problem
cannot be found, call your local dealer.
If the pressure relief valve is not working correctly and is to be
replaced, always reconnect the flexible hose attached to the
pressure relief valve, to avoid water dripping out of the unit!
For problems related to the optional solar kit for domestic
water heating, refer to the troubleshooting in the Installation
& owner's manual of that kit.

Symptom 2: The unit is turned on but the compressor is not
starting (space heating or domestic water heating)
POSSIBLE CAUSES
The unit must start up In case of low water temperature, the

CORRECTIVE ACTION
• Check on the manometer that there
is sufficient water pressure. The water
pressure must be > 1 bar (water is
cold).
• Check that the manometer is not
broken.
• Check that the expansion vessel is
not broken.
• Check that the setting of the
pre- pressure of the expansion
vessel is correct (refer to "Water
pipework/Checking the water volume
and expansion vessel pre-pressure").
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Replace the expansion vessel.
Make sure that the filling water pressure
in the installation is about
0.15~0.20MPa (refer to "Water
pipework/Checking the water volume
and expansion vessel pre-pressure").
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Check for correct operation of the
pressure relief valve by turning the
red knob on the valve counter
clockwise:
• If you do not hear a clacking sound,
contact your local dealer.
• In case the water keeps running out
of the unit, close both the water inlet
and outlet shut-off valves first and
then contact your local dealer.
CORRECTIVE ACTION
Check that the "OTHER HEATING
SOURCE/ BACKUP HEATER" is enabled,
see "Field settings"
Check whether or not the thermal protector
of the backup heater has been activated
(refer to "Switch box main components",
"Backup heater thermal protector"
for location of the reset button).
Check if booster heater is running, the
backup heater and booster heater can't
operate simultaneously.
Check that the 't_DHWHP_MAX' and
"t_DHWHP_RESTRICT" are
configured appropriately:
• Make sure that the 'DHW PRIORITY' in
the user interface is disabled.
• Raise the "T4_TBH_ON" in the user
interface/FOR SERVICEMAN to activate
the booster heater for domestic water
heating。
