Self-diagnosis system INSTRUCTIONS Page 10 / 2005-04-02 / TYPE 2000
All error messages are automatically reset after approximately 10 minutes.
The equipment then carries out a self-check, particularly with regard to E O 1 (which is generally
caused by alcoholic fluid being blown into the machine), to determine whether its operating status
has been restored by “warming up” (evaporating the fluid, etc.).
Warning!! Error messages can be caused not only by faults within the COSMOS machine itself, but also by
electromagnetic interference from other unshielded equipment in the vicinity.
Whenever a fault appears, switch the equipment off and then back on again.
If this does not eliminate the fault, follow the procedures described below.
Before attempting any of the troubleshooting measures described, always remove a fuse (from the power supply
circuit).
Display Cause Troubleshooting measures
None No current Check the cable, plug and socket,
the fuses on the cover and possibly
the F 3.15A 5x20mm power supply fuses
E 01 Alcohol in the sensor Leave the equipment switched on so that the heating system
(light bulb) can evaporate the alcohol more rapidly.
Clear the system by blowing strongly into the blow hole using a
straw (10 times or more), even if initially there is no display at
all. This removes residual alcohol from the testing cylinder.
E 04 Pump breakdown Switch the equipment off and then on again - pump OK now?.
If not, carefully use a small screwdriver to turn one of the gear
wheels in the motor, provided the slack point has not been
passed. If there is still no change, replace the board.
The pump is then probably gummed up with residue from some
fluid blown in (e.g cola or liqueur).
E 05 Defective pressure sensor Replace the mother board.
E 12 Defective or empty This only applies if there is a built-in straw dispenser.
Refill the straw dispenser. Alternatively, the bridging plug
( between pins 3&4 may be faulty.
If the fault remains, call Cosmos Service.
Other faults may have been caused by strong electrical interference from another piece of equipment
damaging an IC and replacement is required (call Cosmos Service).
