Question 1

The ventilation system won't switch on

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: No power supply connected or voltage is out of range. Check the power supply. Charge the vehicle battery if necessary. Contact an authorized service agent if voltage is out of range.

Question 2

The display does not respond

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: The display is dirty, defective, blocked, or not connected correctly. Clean the display using a lightly dampened cloth and reset the ventilation system. Contact an authorised service agent if it's faulty or wired up wrong.

Question 3

The heat exchanger does no longer rotate

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: The heat exchanger is blocked, clogged, grinding, or connection cable/plug (C2) issue. See if the heat exchanger is blocked or grinding, check the plug at the mainboard (C2), and check the connection cable for kinks. Restart the ventilation system to reset the motor's overload protection. Contact a service agent if it still won't turn.

Question 4

The ventilation system isn't working properly

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: Grilles covered, incorrect connection, defective part, or empty battery. Remove leaves and obstacles from air/climate grilles. Charge the connected battery. Contact an authorized service agent for defective parts.

Question 5

Water enters the vehicle

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: The roof seal is damaged. Contact an authorized service agent to replace or repair the seal.

Question 6

The LED light strip isn't working

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: The LED light strip itself is faulty. Contact an authorized service agent.

Question 7

VOC sensor error (Indicator and button flash)

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: VOC sensor failure. Contact an authorized service agent.

Question 8

DP sensor (Performance Booster) communication or data error

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: Bluetooth communication loss, blocked/kinked hose, or low booster battery. Check the Bluetooth connection, make sure the hose isn't kinked or blocked, and either change the battery or check the Performance Booster's power supply. Contact an authorised service agent.

Question 9

Fan error or Motor RPM mismatch

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: Tachometer read while inactive/off (wind-driven), motor tachometer reading missing when active, or heat exchanger blockage/grinding. If wind or manual turning triggered it while inactive, just reset the error. While active, check the heat exchanger for blockage or grinding. Contact an authorised service agent.

Question 10

Backup battery low / Battery overheating / Battery expired (solar panel version only)

Accepted Answer

Possible cause: Insufficient solar power due to weather, communication error with battery IC, very high outside temperature, or expired battery. Run off the vehicle's 12V supply if solar power is low, and move the vehicle into shade if it's overheating. For battery replacement, IC errors, or expired batteries, contact an authorised service agent.
