CLEANING PROCESS

Due to a change of the water level the level switch will give the controller a signal to start the cleaning process. As the water around the

level switch can move as "waves", the controller will only start this process once the level switch will stay in this position for 5 continuous

seconds (to prevent an ongoing "on/o " signal that would start and stop the motor and cleaning pump for short periods).

After this delay time of 5 seconds the cleaning process will begin. This process involves 2 actions:

1. The motor to rotate the drum will be activated. Due to the advanced software technology of the controller, the motor will start slowly

before it reaches its maximum power to prevent that the full torque of the motor is released to the shaft. The motor will reach full power

after about 2 seconds.

2. The power outlet for the cleaning pump/solenoid valve will be provided with 230V to provide the spray nozzles with water. This will

rinse o the waste particles that have been collected on the inside of the drum. The dirty water will exit the lter through the waste

gutter outlet. The cleaning process stops as soon as the level switch has returned to its normal position (plus the eventual extra cleaning

time as discussed later in this manual).

WARNING! Be sure you have removed the power plug from the wall outlet before you open the controller! Not following these

safety precautions can lead to serious injuries through electric shock! You are responsible for opening the controller unit.

Remove the 6 screws of the controller housing. Carefully open the cover on the top side (opposite from the cables) a little bit. The cable of

the LED display is still connected (1). Carefully disconnect this cable (2). The cover can now be opened all the way (3).
