Frequently Asked Questions - Tecnotronic 7616 HOZELOCK

How to install the Tecnotronic 7616?

Mount it on the pump discharge by screwing the 1"1/4 female inlet connection onto the pump's male thread. Then connect the connection cable to the pump and plug the power cable into the electrical network equipped with a 10 or 30 mA earth leakage circuit breaker.

What does the red light mean?

The red light indicates a lack of water at the suction or a pump malfunction. Restore water flow then press the RESET button to restart.

What are the start and stop pressures?

The start pressure is 1.45 bars and the stop pressure depends on the pump (max 10 bars). These values are given at ±10%.

What maximum water temperature can the device withstand?

The water temperature must not exceed 35°C. The maximum ambient temperature is 55°C.

Can I use an extension cord?

Yes, but it must be of type H07 RN-F with the same cross-section as the power cable and with a waterproof connection plug.

Is a filter needed on the suction?

Yes, it is necessary to mount a filter on the pump's suction port to avoid damaging the Tecnotronic.

What to do if the pump does not start?

Check the power supply, that the pump is primed, that the check valve is functional, and that the circuit is leak-proof. If the red light is on, restore water and press RESET.

How to clean the Tecnotronic in case of blockage?

Unplug the unit, remove it from the pump and rinse it thoroughly with a water jet through the inlet. If limescale blocks the check valve, fill it with vinegar or descaler through the outlet.

What is the warranty on this product?

The contractual warranty is 2 years from the date of purchase, with possible extension. It does not cover normal wear, non-compliant installations or modifications.

How to store the device in winter?

It must be stored frost-free, in a dry place protected from temperatures below 5°C.

In case of doubt, french instructions are the reference

Special warning, read carefully
Précautions particulères, lire attentivement

- Directive ROHS 2011/65/EU

For safety reasons, this appliance can be used by children aged from 8 years and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge if they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe way and understand the hazards involved. Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance shall not be made by children without supervision.

1 - SAFETY MEASURES READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE

The user is responsible to third parties for all matters resulting in the use of the product (electrical, hydraulic installation, etc ...). In France, comply with standard NF C15-100 of 07/00, which governs low voltage electrical installations. In other countries, comply with local regulations.

Before using the product, it is therefore advisable to have an experienced electrician check that the necessary safety measures on the electrical network are observed.

The supply characteristics indicated on the rating label must correspond to the characteristics of the electrical network.

For reasons of security, the electrical network that powers your product must be equipped with a Residual current device (10mA or 30mA) and grounded plugs.

For use in swimming pools, ponds and fountains, the Tecnotronic must always be securely set up on a flat and dry surface.

If you add an extension cord, it must be of type H07 RN-F with the same section as the power cable of your product, with a waterproof connection plug.

Never carry Tecnotronic by the cables.

Before each use, check that the power cable is in good condition; do not use the product otherwise.

Do not make any changes to the product. Do not modify or attempt to access the product in any way.

If the appliance or the supply cord is damaged, it must be repaired by manufacturer, its service agent or qualified person.

Our guarantee is excluded for the normal wear of the material, deterioration or accidents resulting from a faulty and abnormal use of the equipment, or due to a modification of the product or an intervention on the electric part.

In case of non-compliance with the instructions, the user incurs a risk that can lead to electrocution.

2 - AREA OF APPLICATION

The Tecnotronic is used to change an electric pump into an automatic pump for domestic use and has 2 functions:

• it allows the pump to be operated automatically: it starts it up when the tap is turned on and stops it about 15 seconds after the tap is turned off.
• it protects the pump from operating when dry: the safety system automatically stops the pump when there is no water suction and therefore prevents any possible damage. When the pump stops, this is signalled by the RED INDICATOR (4) coming on, on the control panel.

The water pumped out must not exceed a temperature of 55^ C.

Attention: This product is not suitable for use with salt water, corrosive products, flammable, explosive or food liquids.

Do not dispose of electrical appliances as unsorted municipal waste, use separate collection facilities. Contact you local government for information regarding the collection systems available.

If electrical appliances are disposed of in landfills or dumps, hazardous substances can leak into the groundwater and get into the food chain, damaging your health and well-being.

When replacing old appliances with new ones, the retailer is legally obligated to take back your old appliance for disposals at least free of charge.

The packaging of the product is recyclable. The device and its accessories contain materials (including plastics) which can be recycled.

5 - PREPARATION - FIRST USE

The Tecnotronic is assembled on the delivery port of the pump by screwing the 1"¼ female entry connector (8) onto the male thread of the pump. If the pump has a different exit from a 1"¼ male one, an intermediate connector (provided) must be used (fig.2). After fitting the Tecnotronic, connect the connection cable (7) to the pump.

Before connecting the suction hose to the pump, fit a filter to stop impurities to the suction hole of the pump. The use of the filter is necessary to prevent any damage to the Tecnotronic and consequently any operating problems.

Warning: Before use, it is necessary to fill the pump and the suction hose completely with water, in order to allow priming. In cases

where the water level is lower than the pump, then a suction hose with a non-return valve must be used. This allows them to be filled for the first use and prevents them from emptying when the pump stops automatically, thus avoiding any problems when the pump is restarted.

The Tecnotronic system is delivered with supply cables. Connect the supply cable (6) to the electricity supply. If the suction phase does not start within 120 seconds, the pump stops automatically and the cause of the malfunction must be determined.

6 - PANEL AND INDICATORS

The Tecnotronic is equipped with a control panel with three luminous diodes which indicate the operating condition of the pump:

• GREEN INDICATOR (1): It comes on when the Tecnotronic is connected to the electricity supply.
• YELLOW INDICATOR (3): Lights up when the pump starts and goes out when it stops.
• RED INDICATOR (4): Lights up when operation is prevented due to a lack of water at suction or if the pump breaks down.
• RESETTING BUTTON (RESET - 2): This serves to restart the pump when a regular water supply has been re-established.

NB : In the case where it does not start up, always check that the suction hose is full of water.

6 - MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Keep the system in a place that does not freeze.

7 - OPERATING ANOMALIES / SOLUTIONS

Incidents	Causes Solution
The red indicator (3) lights up.	No water. Restore the water supply.
The pump starts and stops all the time.	1- The circuit is not sealed.2- Probable presence of foreign bodies inside the Tecnotronic.	1-Check the circuit and the different connections to the pump.2- Disconnect the power supply, remove the Tecnotronic from the pump and rinse it completely with a water jet through the entry side (8), with a garden hose for example.
The pump does not work.	1- The pump has broken down.2- The Tecnotronic is maybe blocked with limescale.3- The pump is not primed.	1- After disconnecting the Tecnotronic from the pump electrically and hydraulically, try to make the pump work alone by connecting it to the power supply.2- If, through the exit hole (5), you see that the check valve is jammed, wash it by filling the Tecnotronic with vinegar or another anti-limescale product through the exit hole. If the check valve is operating correctly, contact the after-sales department.3- Prime the pump (see the pump instructions)- see chapter 5 of these instructions

For any other anomaly, contact our after-sales service. For safety reasons, only the Hozelock-Exel after-sales service is entitled to disassemble the pump.
