FAILURE DURING NORMAL OPERATION

If the red "Aquastop" light is on, the float switch under the unit has been actuated. Check the
machine for leaks and dry the area under the float switch.

If a fault is detected during normal operation, the machine will stop, the programme sequence
LED where the fault occurred will flash and the speed indicator LED's will illuminate in a pattern
to indicate the fault code.
