 Control three-phase  Operation and Maintenance Guide
In case no alarm code is present, some of the most  
common causes of anomalies are given below. These 
causes  may  relate  to  internal  or  external  problems 
effecting the control.
Trouble shooting
Event Possible cause Solution
Compressor 
not starting
Display is OFF
No power supply
•  Check if display is ON and green light    is  
  working. 
•  Check the ambient probe connections.
•  If the problem persists replace the probe.
General magnetothermic circuit breaker 
intervention.
•  Before reinserting the magnetothermic  
  circuit breaker, please check that there are  
  no short-circuits.  Then reinsert the     
  magnetothermic circuit breaker, checking 
  all the absorptions to identify any    
  anomalies.
Auxiliary circuits magnetothermic circuit breaker 
intervention.
•  Before reinserting the magnetothermic    
  circuit breaker please check that no  
  short-circuits are present. Reinsert then    
  magnetothermic circuit breaker verifying all  
  the absorptions to identify any anomalies.
Circuit protection fuse (on the transformer) 
intervention.
•  Replace the fuse (glass fuse 10X20   
  F250mA 250V) . 
•  Check that the transformer output
  absorption does not exceed 0.25A.
•  Check that no other users are connected to   
  the clamps for Kriwan supply. 
•  Check that there are no short-circuits on    
  transformer output.
Compressor 
not starting
The control is in stand-by mode
•  Check that the control is not in stand by  
  mode (flashing green light  ). 
  If it is, press the   key to activate the    
  control (continuous light).
Pressure switches or Kriwan malfunctioning have 
intervened.
•  Check wirings, calibration and correct  
  functioning of compressor and sensors.
•  If starting the system for the very rst  
  time, please check that there is a bridge 
  for pump-down/thermostat function  
  selection on X1 terminal block.  
  Make bridges on terminal block to    
  accommodate devices not present in  the  
  system (Kriwan, pressure switches).
No defrosting 
cycle occurs
Incorrect setting of defrosting cycle parameters  •  Check that the parameters are set correctly.
