Scale-covered or furred-up electrode:
(cont.)
If this should be the case, de-scale the electrode
by dipping it in a solution of 80% water and 20%
hydrochloric acid. Next, check the reasons for
this furring-up:
*the pH is too high
*the salt concentration is too low
*the setting for change of polarity is too long
*the electrode is worn out
Compatibility:
The sterilizing agent (sodium hypochlorite) pro-
duced by the machine is compatible with most
pool water treatment products except for PHMB
polymers. In any case, when adding products,
turn off the chlorinator until the products are com-
pletely dissolved.
Washing the filter/draining the pool:
Turn the machine off when handling the filter
valve: washing, rinsing, draining, except if a flow
switch is installed.
Flow switch error:
In the case of a flow shortage, the machine
indicator will blink and display "99".
8 - Guarantee
The chlorinator is guaranteed two years for parts and
manpower. This guarantee covers all defects recorded
during this period that are not imputed to improper use by
the user. The manufacturer is sole judge of what must be
done to remedy the reported claim.
We would in no way be responsible for maintaining the pool
water during the time it might take to repair the machine
(addition of chemical products, etc.).
If need be, the user must accept a verification of user's
installation by our after-sales agent who will carry out all
tests necessary to prove the existence of the reported
defect.
Electrode : 2-year guarantee.
This guarantee does not cover failures resulting from:
negligence, misuse, non-compliant installation, modifi-
cation, dismantling, corrosion, maintenance or winteri-
zation not done or poorly-done, malicious intent, flood-
ing, lightening, damage due to dropping or impacts.
Any back/forth shipping of material for overhaul or repair
will be done, postage-paid, by the user.
Without prior notification the manufacturer reserves the
right to modify the form, design or aspect of its products.
With regards to the user, this guarantee does not hinder
the application of legal guarantees covering hidden
defects such as those defined in Articles1641 and oth-
ers of the French civil code of law. Neither does it exon-
erate from the legal conformity guarantee established in
the French consumer code of law, ordinance 2005136 of
Feb. 17, 2005.

E4 Salt Chlorinators - Installation and User Manual
9 - What to do in case of
problem?
Any electrical manipulations must
be done by a qualified electrician.
Only full-fledged professionals are
authorized to open the machine.
Problem:
The chlorinator stays off.
Solution : Check the connection on the
filtration box.
Problem:
The
"prod 1" and "prod 2" are off.
Solution : The machine is in safety mode:
electrode current, voltage or internal temperature
are too high. The system will move automatically
into prod 1 and prod 2 once these safety items
are OK.
Problem:
The machine does not reach
the electric current set-point
Solution : Check:
1- The salt concentration (> 3.5 g/l),
2- The water temperature (> 15°C),
3- The condition of the electrode: it must be clean
and scale-free. If the problem persists, this
means that your electrode is wearing out and
needs to be replaced.
Problem:
Low chlorination in spite of the
proper running of the chlorinator
Solution :
1- Check the pH (between 6.9 and
7.4) and the stabilizer concentration (between 20
and 50 g/m3),
2- Increase the electric current for production,
3- Increase the filtration time.
Problem:
No chlorine although the
chlorinator is running
Solution :
1- Presence of hydrogen peroxide:
This product cancels the chlorine reading for
approximately 3 weeks,
2- Saturated or imbalanced water: carry out
shock chlorination, re-balance the TA (12 to 18°
F) and, if necessary, replenish part of the pool
water.
