G. Diagnostic Charts

Before consulting the diagnostic charts, check for correct installation, proper voltage per unit nameplate, and adequate water supply. Check CB using the steps in "IV.B. Control Board Check." Check the dip switch settings to assure that S4 dip switch 3, 4, 7, 8, 9, & 10 and S5 dip switch 1 through 5 are in the factory default position. S4 dip switch 1, 2, 5, & 6 are cleaning adjustments and the settings are flexible. For factory default settings, see "II.C.3.a) Default Dip Switch Settings."
