4   Description of functions  

Start and self test 

Every time the Control Unit is switched on it performs a self test of all functions and the internal safety 
circuits. (See chapter 10 for a detailed description of the self test). If the Control Unit does not detect any 
faults, the warming will start automatically at a factory pre-set temperature of 37

 O

C. 

That the Unit is warming is indicated by a temperature lamp being lit. (Wait about 10 seconds after start) 

If the unit do not self test exactly as described in this manual- then you must not use it!  

Warming can only start if no faults are detected. 

Temperature indication and selection 

The actual water temperature is indicated by a blinking lamp and the selected by a constantly lit lamp.
