Operation

The Bluetooth MyTouch control element for the BlueCool F-Series enables you to control the connected system. The display doubles up as a touch screen. Instructions are included in this document.

ATTENTION
The display must not come in contact with any other electrical devices. The electrostatic discharge could cause malfunctions. Do not use pointed or sharp objects to operate the screen. Do not exert excessive pressure.

NOTE
Webasto recommends operating the screen using your fingers only. The touch sensitivity of the screen is op-timized to fingertip contact. The screen may not re-spond if gloves are worn.
Tapping at the very edge of the screen may not be recognized.

Operation
After switching on in automatic mode F3, the control starts the Fresh air unit and the connected Extract air unit one after the other and then switches to start mode. In the first 30 sec. both fans of fresh air and extract air unit op-erate with nominal air flow rate and detect the current temper-ature conditions of the outdoor air. During this phase, the proportional valve is partially opened to accurately sense the actual chilled water temperature. If the outside air temperature is lower than the cabin supply air set point temperature, the unit will begin reheating the outside air even regardless of the chiller’s current operating mode. If the outside air temperature is higher than the set target temperat-ure, the unit will begin to cool, but only if the available chilled water temperature is lower than the outside air temperature.It is recommended to operate the fresh air system in F3 auto-matic mode. In that mode the system is able to adapt to differ-ent weather conditions. If the chiller is operated in F1 “Cooling only” mode, the electric heating of the fresh air unit is still activ-ated. If the supply air temperature is higher (cooling) or lower (heat-ing) than the set temperature, the message

High supply air temperature
Low supply air temperature
Undercooling protection

is displayed.The fan will not operate if “Shutdown high supply air temperat- ure” or “Shutdown low supply air temperature” is activated. This prevents air that is too warm or too cold being blown into the cabin.The fan will operate if “Shutdown high supply air temperature” or “Shutdown low supply air temperature” is deactivated. This ensures a sufficient supply of fresh air, when needed. However the supply air temperature will be warmer or colder than the set value.The fan will NOT operate if the supply air temperature is below 12 °C in order to prevent cabins getting too cold.In cooling mode, the cold water temperature is significantly be-low 15 °C and in heating mode significantly above 40 °C. For changes to these shutdown parameters, please contact your authorised Webasto Marine dealer or service partner.

Maintenance

Check the sea-water and chilled water circuit for leaks in the entire system and from the sea-cock to the sea-water outlet.
Check the condensate line for unobstructed drainage of the condensate water tray.
Check air-ducting for damage, interruption and free flow.
Check proper functioning of the system by running it for at least 10 minutes.
Check electrical connections for corrosion of contacts and firm fitting.

Status / Error message table

Screen	LED “Alive”	Possible cause	Possible cause
AAA Under- voltage	1x flashing, pause…	Switch-off as a result of under-

voltage. The power supply is below the set undervoltage value for longer than 5 seconds. This may be caused by an excessively long cable, over- loading or an insufficiently high power-generator output.| Provide a more suitable power supply.

If this does not solve the problem, please contact your au- thorised Webasto Marine dealer or service partner.
