Fluid - Chemfree SmartWasher 15 Sink Mode D'emploi

TROUBLESHOOTING
Refer to schematic diagram on page 6
You will need a volt/ohmmeter and a small screwdriver to
check certain parts on your SmartWasher. To remove
wires from the terminals, place a screwdriver into the
square hole above/below the wire you need to remove
and push in. Pull gently on the wire to remove. To replace
the wire follow the same procedure but gently push on the
wire to insert it into the terminal block. Tug on the wire to
make sure it is secure.
1. Insure the circuit into which the unit is plugged is of
sufficient amperage (minimum 20 amps) and that no
other equipment is connected to the circuit. The
SmartWasher will draw approximately 10-14 amps
(2.5-5 amps for 220VAC) when the heater is running.
If the outlet does not meet these specifications, plug
unit into an outlet that meets these specifications.
2. Check the power. If the power light is not on, check
the voltage across connectors #1 and #3 on the
Temp/Level Controller is correct. You should read
120VAC (220VAC). If you don't get the correct reading
and there is 120VAC (220VAC) at the outlet, the
power cord is defective and will need to be replaced. If
there is voltage, the power light is defective.
HEATING PROBLEMS
No Heat
1. Is the LOW FLUID LIGHT ON? If the SmartWasher is
low on OzzyJuice it will not heat. Add a full container
of OzzyJuice to the machine. The low fluid light should
go out. If the low fluid light does not go out lift the sink
and check that the float is clean and level with the top
of the fluid. If so, proceed to step 2.
Allow appropriate time for unit to heat, then recheck. If
there is still no heat proceed to step 3.
2. Test the Probe - Low Level Indicator
UNPLUG THE SMARTWASHER. On the Temp/Level
Controller disconnect the gray wire on #12 and the orange
wire on #14. Find the level indicator (float) on the probe
(located on the steel rod inside the tank). With an
ohmmeter, check the resistance between the gray and
orange wires. The level indicator, when the machine is full
will be at the top stop and the meter reading should read 0
ohms (closed). Push the float down to the bottom stop and
check the reading again. The reading should be infinity
(open). If you do not get these readings the float is
defective. (Reconnect wires to #12 and #14).

3. Test the Probe - Thermostat
UNPLUG THE SMARTWASHER. On the Temp/Level
Controller, disconnect the yellow wire on #13 and the
orange wire on #14. Measure the resistance between the
yellow and orange wires. This measurement is
temperature based. Refer to the chart below for proper
readings.
If you do not get the above readings, the probe is
defective. (Reconnect wire to #13 and #14).
4. Test the Heater.
UNPLUG THE SMARTWASHER. Remove heater wires
from #7 on the Terminal Block and #6 on the Temp/Level
Controller. With an ohmmeter, check the resistance of the
heater. It should read 22 - 27 ohms. If it does not read in
this range, the heater is defective. (Reconnect wire to #6
and #7).
5. If everything above tests good, then the Temp/Level
Controller is defective.
