ADJUSTMENT AND CONTROLS + POSSIBLE COMPLAINTS
ADJUSTMENT AND CONTROLS Thermostat : Thermostat 25, fitted to the soleplate 26 has already been adjusted by the supplier and secured by glue. To avoid malfunction of the iron, NEVER readjust the thermostat. Adjustment thermostat 25, supplied as a spare part. N.B. Before starting to adjust the thermostat, make sure that a gap exists between the lower tip of the ceramic insulating pin and the real-off bracket. See fig. 1. Connect the connecting strips to an Ohm-meter. Set the thermostat stopper to the position as indicated in fig. 2. Turn the adjusting screw ( R ) clockwise or anti-clockwise until the Ohm-meter indicates " 0 ". ( The contacts are closed ) Then turn the adjusting screw clockwise until the Ohm-meter indicates and the contacts have only just been opened. You hear a " click ". While loosely turning the thermostat stopper, check if the thermostat switches in the position as indicated in fig. 2. After the thermostat has been adjusted, adjust the real-off bracket. Set the thermostat stopper in the position shown in fig. 3. The thermostat contacts are closed. ( Ohm-meter indicates " 0 " ) Turn the set-screw S clockwise until the contacts have only just been opened. The Ohm-meter indicates . Secure the adjusting screws with a glue. After adjusting the thermostat, always check the temperature of the soleplate, with the dial set to MAX. position ( 205 ± 25 °C ) For location of testing point, see fig. 4. The temperature must be measured, after the iron has been connected to the mains for at least 15 min. The max. temperature shall not be higher than 230 °C.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF THE HI 995 MASTER VAPOR Description of the water supply.

IV

· A pin ( 1 ) in the bottom of the housing activates the valve in
the watertank.

· The microswitch ( 2 ) makes sure that the electric circuit is
closed, provided the tank has been fit properly.

· The reed contact ( 3 ) makes sure that the system switches
4 I 5 1
off when there is no sufficient water in the tank.

II

The floater in the tank ( 4 ) drops when water is pumped to the boiler. Once the floater is at the bottom, the magnet in the floater activates the reed contact, so the reed contact is openend and the circuit is interupted. The light goes on.

· Sensor ( 5 ) in the boiler activates the pump, when the
water level reaches the lowest specified water level. The sensor detects the resistance between the sensor and the water level. When the water level is low, the resistance will be rather high and the pump is activated. When the water level is high, the resistance is low and the pump stops.

III 3 2

The HI994 consists of an iron and a stand. Cold water is pumped from the detachable tank to the boiler, where steam is generated. After operating the steam valve, steam flows into the iron.

Functioning of the system ­ The water tank is filled with water and fitted on the stand. ­ Switch is operated, light goes on, indicating that water is being heated. ­ Water is pumped from the tank to the boiler. This can be clearly heared. ­ Once enough water is in the boiler, the pump stops. ­ When the pressure is within the limites 2 ± 0.3 bar, there is sufficient steam to start ironing and the the pressostat comes into operation and switches off the element. ­ Switch can be operated to start ironing. Pilot light switch goes on. ­ Once the water level reaches the lowest specified level, the sensor activates the pump. ­ The whole process starts again. The pump is a vibration pump which makes noise during pumping. This is normal. The pump doesn't pump water continuously. It pumps at the start and during ironing after finishing steaming.
STAND IRON

The stand consists of: I ) A detachable tank : There is a floater in the tank, which activates the reed contact. II ) A pump : The pump is protected against overheating by an automatically resettable cut-out. III) A boiler : On the boiler the following controls are fitted - hand-resettable safety thermostat - boiler thermostat - fuse - pressostat - mechanical safety valve - sensor - electro valve + sieve IV) An electronic control / steering unt, which consists of : a PCB, located below the pump a sensor, located in the boiler

POSSIBLE FAILURE CAUSES COMPLAINT : WATER RUNS OUT OF THE SOLEPLATE

· Check if temperature dial ( 21 ) is set to the highest position.
If steam dial ( 13 ) is set to the highest pos. and the temp. dial to medium or low position the soleplate doesn't become hot enough and the steam condenses.

· Steam from former use condensed in the hose.
This is normal. The water disappears when the iron heats up. COMPLAINT : IT DOESN'T STEAM

· operate the steam command lever ( 14 ) < no click is heared

the electrovalve ( 111 ) is broken.

* replace the complete boiler ( 36 ). the microswitch of the steam activator is broken. * replace the component.
< a "click" is heared clearly



the electrovalve ( 111 ) functions properly.

* check the water supply. ( see further on )
< the water supply is OK



the sieve of the electrovalve has been soiled with scale.

* replace the boiler ( 36 ).
GENERAL TEST :

· connect the system to the mains, switch the boiler and iron on, set the temp. dial to the
highest pos.

< when measuring :

800 Watts



boiler defective

< when measuring : 1400 Watts < when measuring : 2200 Watts < pump makes noise continuously < pump doesn't make noise
CHECK WATER SUPPLY A

* replace boiler iron defective * check sole plate / thermostat.
possible problem in the water supply

* check water supply * check water supply

7 cm

· switch on the boiler and lift the stand about 7 cm ( see picture A ) < the pump doesn't make noise * check PCB control unit. ( see further on ) < the pump makes noise and the water supply is OK.
the water level in the tank drops

< the pump makes noise and
the water level DOESN'T drop

* check the boiler * check water supply. ( see further on )

Check PCB control unit

· remove screw ( G ) and switch the product on ( see picture B ) < pump starts too much water in the boiler.
< pump doesn't start < when measuring : 180 volts AC < when measuring : 220 volts AC



check voltage over connecting points. ( see picture C ) the PCB is OK

* check the pump for possible defect. the diode is defective * replace the PCB + diode the PCB is broken * replace the PCB

< when measuring : 0 volts AC

Check water supply

· check if water tank has been filled with water. · check if filled water tank has been fitted properly. If not, pilot light goes on. · check if operation lever bottomplate has not been broken. If so, replace bottom housing. · check if connecting tube tank - pump ( 45 ) has been fitted properly. · check if reed contact functions properly : * push floater downwards with a plastic spoon.
< the reed contact will be opened.
The pump stops and the electrovalve cannot be opened while operating the steam activator.

D

· check if the total water supply has been clogged by scale. * remove tube ( 37 ) and switch the product on.
( see picture D )

< when water flows out of the tube, * take a little drill, diam. 2.5 mm and remove the scale by
the water inlet has been soiled by scale or the like. turning the little drill carefully by hand. ( see picture E )

< no water flows out of the tube
37
E "NUISANCE CALL" :



one-way valve is soiled

* replace the valve.

The pump has been provided with an automatical cut-out. This cut out is activated when the pump becomes to hot. This is caused by a not properly functioning of the water supply ( clogged with scale or dirt ) or internal failure in the pump. This happens after a relative long period of use. After a cooling-down period the cut-out is reset automatically so it may function properly at the repair shop. When such a situation arises, check the water supply and/or pump as described before.
