c) Replace it.
a) Reread the installation conditions and recommendations in this data sheet.
b) The suction pipe must have the same diameter as the pump suction port.
c) Remove and clean.
a) Check the whole network, taps, WCs, etc.
b) Replace the automation.
c) Remove lower cover and clean the inside of the automatic control.
a) Check the whole network, taps, WCs, etc.
a) Replace the automation.
b) Increase the cut-in threshold by turning the screw (See FIG. 3 - item 18).
