Error Code / IndicatorSymptom / MeaningStep-by-Step DIY FixSuggested Actions
Operational Fault
Device/vehicle fuse defective, window above cowl open, or no supply voltage.
Check 12V / 230V battery voltage, check fuses and electrical plug connections, and close window above cowl.DIY Safe
Red monitor lamp flashes
Battery voltage too low (< 10.5 V).
Charge battery immediately.DIY Safe
Operational Fault
Battery voltage too low (< 10.5 V)
Check and charge the battery.DIY Safe
Operational Fault
Gas cylinder or quick-closure valve closed, or air feed interrupted.
Check gas feed/valves, check cowl for blockages, and open deck cowl if on a boat.DIY Safe
Operational Fault
Hot-air outlets blocked, gas pressure regulator iced up, or butane content in gas cylinder too high.
Check individual outlet apertures, use de-icing system controller (EisEx), or switch to propane (especially below 10°C).DIY Safe
Safety/drain valve opens automatically
Outside temperature below 4°C or lack of 12V power supply to the valve.
Switch the heating on; ensure 12V power supply and fuses are intact.DIY Safe
Operational Fault
Outside temperature below 8°C without heating operation active, or lack of 12V power supply.
Switch the heating on to warm the surrounding area above 8°C, then lift control knob to close.DIY Safe
Operational Fault
Gas cylinder or quick-acting valve closed, or air supply interrupted
Check gas supply, ensure quick-acting valve is open, check chimney for blockages or covers.DIY Safe
Operational Fault
Warm air outlets blocked, gas pressure regulator frozen, or butane content in gas too high
Check individual outlets, use EisEx de-icing system, or switch to propane gas.DIY Safe

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the heating be operated without water in the boiler?

Yes, heating operation is basically possible without restriction with or without water content.

Q: Why does the electrical safety/drain valve open by itself?

At temperatures below 4°C at the valve, or when the system loses 12V power, the safety valve opens automatically to drain the boiler and prevent frost damage.

Q: How do I fill the water boiler?

Close the safety/drain valve by lifting the control knob to position 'm', turn on the water pump power, and open the hot water taps until water flows continuously without air.

Q: Can I use the hot water for drinking?

No, the water in the boiler is not drinking water.
