FAULT STATUS

The Fault Status screen will display the fault code for the current or last fault that has occurred in Smartdrive. It will also display how many cycles ago the fault occurred and at what part of the cycle. The fault code can be checked in Section 11 to identify the repairs that may be necessary.

DRAIN PUMP TEST

When in diagnostic mode, the FABRIC CARE button turns the drain pump on or off. This can be helpful if the bowl is still full of water. The pump is run at 50Hz for this test. When in the 50Hz mode, the pump will not turn on and off every 10 seconds. When running this test the state of the diverter valve should be known. This is the best method for checking the recirculation system. Always check that there is no water pumped to drain when the product is recirculating and vice versa.

WATER VALVE TEST

When in diagnostic mode, pressing the HOW DIRTY down button will turn the Cold Water Valve on. Pressing the HOW DIRTY up button will turn the Hot Water Valve on. The buttons must be held on to keep the valves on.

RESTART

When in diagnostic mode, pressing the OPTION button will bring up the Control Option screen.

Smartdrive defaults to RESTART ON. This is indicated on the screen by the word RESTART highlighted. To turn RESTART OFF, push the button alongside the word. This will remove the highlight from the word RESTART. When Smartdrive is being serviced it is more convenient to turn RESTART OFF. This will allow any fault in the system to show up immediately.

With RESTART ON:

If a fault occurs in Smartdrive, the diagnostic system will detect it. However, instead of displaying a fault code immediately, Smartdrive will retry several times.

If the fault was only of temporary nature, Smartdrive will finish the cycle.

If there is a continuous fault Smartdrive will retry a number of times. This process could take up to 8 minutes depending on the type of fault. After this, if Smartdrive still cannot restart, the fault code is displayed and will beep continuously.

The status of RESTART is indicated during normal use of Smartdrive as follows: - If none of the 5 green “HOW DIRTY” LED’s are on, RESTART is on.

If the 5 green “HOW DIRTY” LED’s are flashing, RESTART is off.

NB: RESTART is designed as a service aid only and should be left ON in the customer’s home. To return to normal operation, and to reset RESTART to the default setting, switch Smartdrive off at the wall. If this does not reset the state then RESTART and RECYCLE must be reset in EEPROM. To set these states hold down the button adjacent to the LCD for 2 seconds, Smartdrive will beep once.
