function (interval) does not
start
No display on the control
system
Possible cause

Module.
Too many pond animals
Screen elements clogged or damaged
Drum seal incorrectly positioned
Drum seal is damaged
Large dirt particles have collected in the filter
drum
Large particles of dirt such as string algae
are blocking the dirt channel.
Rinsing nozzle clogged
Floater switch jammed
Screen elements clogged
Pump capacity too high
The pipe of the dirt outlet is blocked.

The control system checks the function of the
level detection device.
• This check is started automatically if too
few automatic cleaning procedures have
been carried out.
Control system has switched off due to
overheating (temperature switch)
Remedy
Switch on the filter pump, connect the power plug.
Clean the supply and/or return.
Clean, replace if necessary.
Check hose, and replace if necessary.
Reduce line length to necessary minimum.
Adjust the pump capacity accordingly
• For AquaMax Eco Premium 12000, 16000,
20000, switch off the SFC (Seasonal Flow
Control). SFC reduces the quantity of water by
up to 50 %.
• Remove algae and leaves from the pond.
• If the water is particularly contaminated, change
30 % of the water to avoid damage to the fish.
• Optimise the water flow so that the skimmer
and/or the filter pump can draw in the dirt
particles.
• Align the skimmer and/or filter pump in relation to
the water flow so that they can draw in dirt
particles.
Reduce number of pond animals
Clean or replace screen elements
Check the seating of the drum seal
Replace the drum seal
Remove a screen element and remove dirt
particles from the filter drum
Remove a screen element and clean the dirt
channel.
Clean the rinsing nozzle, replace if necessary
Clean floater switch
Clean/descale the screen elements
Reduce the pump capacity.
Clean the pipe

• Wait. The check takes a maximum of 24 hours.
• The check is completed once the level detection
function is triggered. An automatic cleaning
procedure is carried out.
• If the level detection device is not triggered within
24 hours, Er22 is displayed. The time-dependent
cleaning cycle is activated. (→ System
messages)
Protect the control system from heat and allow it to
cool down
