Go on deck;
Contact Webasto Service Centre or shipyard.
FLAMMABLE
Ignition of surrounding gases or highly flammable liquids
by sparking of the air-conditioning system!
Danger of fire and explosion of ship or of petrol station.
The air-conditioning systems must ALWAYS be switched off
during refuelling or while in a petrol station area.
ATTENTION
Defective operation or damage to the components of the airconditioning system and the ship.
Follow the installation instructions when installing electrical
wiring, sea water piping, cold water lines as well as when

The BlueCool V-Series air-conditioning system is operated with the control
element that enables access to all functions for normal operation of the air conditioning system.
3.1 Directly connected air handlers
The central digital chiller control element not only controls the general operation of the chiller unit but can also directly control the air handlers located in the
saloon and/or in the cabin (where the main cabin temperature sensor is located).
This direct air handler control function is not available in all installations.
NOTE!
When an air handler is connected directly to the BlueCool V-Series
chiller it acts as the reference and governs whether the system is to
heat or cool in automatic mode.
The secondary air handlers can only be operated in the same operating mode
(heating or cooling) as the chiller unit as the unit can either only heat or cool at
any one time.
NOTE!
By using electrical heating elements in the secondary air handlers
individual cabins can be heated while the overall system operates in
cooling mode.
3.2 Operation
All fans connected directly to the chiller electrical box are started when the operating mode LED lights up. The fan control facility checks whether the cold water
circuit is at the required temperature. Example: In cooling mode at a set temperature of 21°C, the fan speed in automatic operation remains at level 1 until the
temperature in the cold water circuit is lower than 21°C. This prevents the fan
starting up too early if the temperature in the cold water circuit is unsuitable.
The digital chiller control element can completely shut down fan operation, e.g.
at night, while the other air handlers on the boat continue to operate. The fan
control is completely independent of compressor operation.
5
3.3 Switching on central chiller unit and air handlers
After connecting the voltage supply, first all LEDs and all segments of the numeric
display flash for a few seconds, then "INIT" briefly appears on the control element. The display “50H” or “60H” follows, depending on which power supply
the air-conditioning system is operated on, for example 230 V/50 Hz or
230 V/60Hz.
If the system was switched on before cutting off the voltage supply, the current
cabin temperature in the reference cabin will appear on the control element and
the system will start up automatically in the set operating mode. Otherwise the
control panel will go dark and the air-conditioning system will assume standby
mode.
•
Switch on the system by pressing the "On/Off"
button (6).
Depending on the requested operating mode, either the LED indicator for heating
mode (7) or the LED indicator for cooling mode (9) lights up to show the active
mode. The LED indicator for automatically switching between operating modes
(8) shows whether switchover takes place automatically. Automatic switch-over
is dependent on the set temperature and the cabin temperature measured by the
cabin temperature sensor.
After a further 10seconds the 4/2-way reversing valve (that allows the air-conditioning system to operate as a chiller unit (cooling) or as a heat pump (heating))
opens to equalise pressure in the refrigerant circuit. After another 10seconds the
sea water pump starts up followed by the compressor. This is followed by normal
operation.
3.4 Switching off system
The system can be switched off by pressing the "On/Off" button
(6). The
condition for this is that the user is in the start menu with the display of the cabin
temperature. On the programming level (temperature, fan), the "On/Off"
but-
ton (6) is used to confirm the setting and not to switch off the system.
6
3.5 Selecting cooling mode/heating mode
The system selects cooling or heating operating mode depending on the required
temperature. The prerequisite is that the system has been configured for automatic switch-over between cooling and heating. For information on configuring the
operating modes please contact your authorised Webasto Marine dealer.
3.6 Setting setpoint temperature
•
Set the setpoint temperature in accordance with your own preferences.
•
Press the Plus button
(2) or Minus button (3).
The setpoint temperature is displayed.
•
Press the Plus
button (2) or Minus button (3) to change the setpoint
temperature.
•
Confirm the entry by pressing the “On/Off” button
(6) or wait at least 5se-
conds so that the entered value is automatically adopted.
3.7 Standby mode
The control element will assume standby mode if no button is pressed for
5minutes. The corresponding operating mode LED will then flash discretely every
20seconds. Press any button to return to the normal display.
3.8 Activating Eco mode
With the Eco mode function it is possible to continuously operate the BlueCool
V-Series under modulating partial load, thus limiting the current consumption of
the system. This makes it possible to operate the system with a lower generator
output, parallel with other large electrical loads such as hot water boiler or with
weak on-shore power supply.

4 Malfunctions
4.1 Troubleshooting
CAUTION
Troubleshooting only by professionals!
Troubleshooting requires comprehensive knowledge on the
design and operation of the individual components of the airconditioning system and may only be carried out by authorised
professionals trained by Webasto for this purpose.
If malfunctions occur, the system must be switched off.
4.2 Malfunctions that are displayed
The following malfunctions are displayed directly on the digital control element
as a code (e.g. A02). Each time one of these fault codes appears, the system is
stopped for approx. 60 seconds and then a restart is attempted. If a malfunction
occurs more often than 6 times consecutively within 30 minutes, the system is
completely shut down and the fault code is displayed continuously. No further
restarts are attempted and the user should have the fault rectified and then reset
the system by switching it off or by temporarily interrupting the voltage supply to
the system.

4.4 Malfunctions not displayed on control element
1. After switching on, the system does not react. Check the power supply, the
supply line circuit breakers, etc.
2. The compressor starts up, however no sea water exits from the sea water
outlet. If the sea water pump is running:
• Check whether the shut-off valves are opened.
• Check whether the sea water strainer is clogged.
• There could be air in the pump head causing the pump to malfunction.
Bleed the air out of the sea water line, e.g. with a bleeder valve downstream
of the pump.
If the sea water pump is not running:
• Check the power supply to the sea water pump.
• The pump rotor may be blocked by dirt. If possible and accessible, using a
tool turn the pump rotor from the motor side until it moves freely.
25
3. The compressor and the sea water pump are running, but neither the heating
mode nor the cooling mode function satisfactorily. Check whether Eco mode is
activated and the compressor output is therefore reduced.
• Check whether the cold water pump is running. If necessary, check the
power supply to the pump. Check whether the shut-off valves in the cold
water circuit are opened.
• Allow the fan to run in the automatic fan mode.
• Check the air ducts of the air handlers.
• If the sea water flow rate is too low, the sea water in the condenser can
freeze in heating mode, blocking and damaging the system.
• Check the voltage level. Do not operate the system continually with insucient voltage (under 195 V).
• Heating mode takes a long time to start up. This is normal when the sea
water is very cold. When the temperature of the sea water drops below approx. 6 °C, the heating eciency decreases and the air-conditioning system
takes a long time before producing the expected heat. Run air-conditioning
system in heating mode for about 60minutes to remove a possible oil
blockage in the refrigerant circuit.
• If the performance of the system is still unsatisfactory after checking all of
the above points, you should have the refrigerant fill level checked.
• An incorrect cabin temperature is displayed. Cabin temperature sensor
positioned incorrectly, fault sources are present or display values are falsified.
Check whether the cabin temperature sensor is subject to direct fault sources, like direct sunlight or devices radiating heat. Calibrate sensor or replace
defective sensor. Have corrected by a specialist workshop.
