Troubleshooting
For the flow control to properly operate the pump system, water must pass through the device every time
water is needed. The water supply to the device and pump system is typically from a municipal or utility
water main line. The device can also operate on a cistern or other non-pressurized water tank, but this
should be located above both the pump and the highest water outlet to ensure water flow through the sys-
tem.
If the flow control or pump has been replaced with a model different than the original and performance is
not as expected, check that the technical features of the components are compatible. Refer to
tions" on page 3.
