MENU button, up and down adjustment buttons, and
an LED display. The desired water temperature (set
point) is controllable between 40°F and 104°F (5°C
and 40°C). The set point may differ from the actual
water temperature at the pool or spa due to heat loss
in the piping.

temperature in the heater is displayed. The LED
corresponding to the current temperature scale will be
illuminated. If the heater is calling for heat the
HEATING LED will be illuminated.
FAHRENHEIT TO CELCIUS:

the temperature sensor. This can be caused by a faulty
sensor or a loose connection between the sensor and
the temperature controller.
