tion reached
Green Flashing: Appliance connected to power supply
Diagnostic traffic
lights (draw-off mode)
Fault Cause Remedy
No LED illuminates Appliance does not heat up
One or more mains power phases missing Check fuses/MCBs in distribution board
Faulty PCB Replacing the function module
Green flashing, yellow off,
red off
No DHW
Appliance starting flow rate not reached; shower
head/aerator scaled up
Descale/replace the shower head/aerator
Appliance starting flow rate not reached; strainer
in cold water inlet dirty
Cleaning the strainer
Flow meter not attached Check plug-in connection; correct if necessary
Flow meter faulty or dirty Replacing the flow meter
Faulty PCB Replacing the function module
Green flashing, yellow on,
red off
No display
Loose connecting cable between PCB and pro-
gramming unit
Check plug-in connections; correct if necessary
Faulty connecting cable between PCB and pro-
gramming unit
Check connecting cable; replace if necessary
Programming unit faulty Replacing the programming unit
Faulty PCB Replacing the function module
Green flashing, yellow on,

Air detection has responded Continue draw-off for >1 min
Safety switch not activated during "Commissioning" Activate safety switch by pressing the reset button
firmly
Safety switch triggered by high limit safety cut-out Check high limit safety cut-out (plug-in connection,
connecting cable); activate safety switch
Safety switch responds again after high limit safety
cut-out has been checked; high limit safety cut-out
faulty
Replace high limit safety cut-out; activate safety
switch and draw off water at the maximum set
value for >1 min
Safety switch responds again; PCB faulty Replacing the function module
Short circuit in outlet sensor Check outlet sensor; replace if necessary
