OPERATING FAULT DIAGNOSTICS
The control box has a self-diagnostic system, which easily allows identifying the operating faults (RED LED
signal).
To use this function, wait at least ten seconds from the safety lock out, and then press the reset button for
a minimum of 3 seconds.
After releasing the button, the RED LED starts flashing as shown in the diagram below.
