13. Diagnostic Messages – Programmed Safety Features: When E-Max senses a problem, it will
automatically turn off all elements and valves, ash lights, display the message “Call For Service”
and display one of the messages below. (Additionally: a service phone number may appear if it
has been programmed into the system.)
* To reset the brewer it can be re-energized (or press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds for all
faults except the Valve Fault, which must be reset by re-energizing). The brewer will try to
re-start, but if the same problem persists, the appropriate error message will appear again.
Consult the Trouble Shooting section to determine how to solve the problem.
A. “Probe/Heater Error”: Overheating Detection (1): If the heating element is on for 5 minutes
and the temperature does not change by +2°F (1°C) in the ve minute period, the unit will go
into the Over Temperature Mode with all lights ashing. When in this mode the brewer turns
off the heating elements, the solenoid valves are turned off; the switches disabled; (and all
lights ashing continuously). The LCD display will read “Probe/Heater Error”, followed by the
message “Call for Service”, and then the service phone number (if it has been entered into
memory). To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds, or re-energize the brewer.
(Possible causes of problem: high limit needs to be re-set; defective high limit, element, triac,
water level probe or control board.)
B. “Overheat Error”: Overheating Detection (2): If the E-Max senses a temperature over the
Maximum Temperature set in the program (factory set at 208ºF or 98ºC) it will go into the over
temperature mode as above with all lights ashing, except the LCD will read “overheat error”,
and “Call for Service”. To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds, or re-energize the
brewer. (Possible cause of problem is a defective triac, temperature probe or related wiring
and connections.)
C. “No Water Sensed” — Time-Out —Inlet Valve: When lling for the rst time, the inlet valve
will remain open for 4¼ minutes, (the screen will read “lling…”). If water is not detected at
the end of this time the E-Max will shut down with the message “no water sensed”. The
valves and all elements are turned off, and the Brew and Power light ash alternately with the
Heat light, until the brewer is reset. To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds, or
re-energize the brewer. (Possible causes of the problem are: no incoming water; slow ow of
incoming water (i.e. less than 45 oz/minute); sensor not reading
(check for placement, connections or lime scale).
