How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety note: No internal repair is usually needed; this is typically a user setting.

  • Disable control lock: Press and hold the designated lock button (often marked with a padlock icon or "Hold 3 Sec") for 3–5 seconds until CL disappears.
  • Dry the panel: Wipe the control panel with a dry cloth to remove moisture that may cause false touches.
  • Power reset: If CL will not clear, turn off the breaker for 5 minutes, then restore power and try again.
  • Check for stuck button: If the lock indicator remains on and buttons feel stuck, the user interface may need replacement.
