“Water low” message (water reserve)
Function:
e water level is monitored by a capacitative sensor, located one third of the
way up the water tank wall.
If the electronics assembly detects, by means of the sensor, that the amount
of water in the tank has dropped below the above mentioned level, a water
reserve remains available for the dispensing process underway (this will
cover 200 ow meter pulses).
e product dispensing process will then come to an end.
If a dispensing cycle ends aer the sensor has been triggered (in the reserve)
then the display “Water low” continues to be displayed during the following
dispensing cycle.
