Look/Feel
Before removing chlorinator cover, check the following:
1. Is the pool pump on?
2. Is the chlorinator turned on?
3. Do the indicator lights function? (If NO, see Output Lights pg. 8-9)
(If all of the above answers are “YES”, there is no problem with the chlorinator. Have the consumer bring a water
sample to their dealer for analysis.)
4. Is the circuit breaker tripped? (see Circuit Breaker pg. 4)
5. Is the output cord damaged or the plug cap not properly attached?
(see No Flow Light Is On pg. 10)
6. Is there calcium built-up on the cell? (see Calcium Build-up
on Cell pg. 12)
After checking the above items:
1. Turn off power supply.
2. Remove 4 screws to remove cover and hang cover
from venting with “S” hooks provided in kit.
