TROUBLESHOOTING

PROBLEM SOLUTION

No flame/no ignition in winter
(temp. <7 °C)| Check whether butane or propane is being used: butane will burn even more poorly as the temperature drops below 7 °C because it then turns into liquid. With LPG (=propane/butane mixture), it will often help to give the gas cylinder a shake.
No flame| – Too low water flow. Solution: Increase water flow.
– Too low water pressure. Solution: Increase water pressure to a pressure > 0.03 MPa.
– The pressure relief valve is open. Solution: Tighten the pressure relief valve by turning the valve clockwise.
– Not enough gas: Exchange gas bottle.
Yellow flame instead of blue flame| Contact the service center immediately for help.
