Possible Causes

Scaled heating elements, Partially failed heating element (reduced power), Incorrect temperature calibration, Faulty NTC sensor drifting out of range

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate power and allow the machine to cool before working on heating components.

  • Verify temperatures: Use a thermometer to measure wash and rinse temperatures during operation. Compare with Classeq specifications.
  • Descale tank and boiler: Perform a full descale using a Classeq‑approved descaling agent to remove limescale from the tank heater and boiler heater.
  • Check heater power: Measure current draw of the heaters (qualified personnel only). A significantly low reading may indicate a partially failed element.
  • Inspect NTC sensors: Replace tank and boiler NTC sensors if readings are inaccurate or unstable, even if no error code is present.
