What does ELEC.BACKP mean on an Edel?


 

Issue:  ELEC.BACKP showing on screen


What this means: The electric back up immersion element is running. It is not a fault.

If the compressor is running at the same time as the words ELEC.BACKP onscreen are shown, then it is likely the setting "TºC min = 43C" is active, or that the cylinder is using the immersion element to help achieve the anti-legionella temperature. This is normal.

 

The "TºC min = 43C" setting will run the compressor and the immersion element together at the same time, if the water drops below 38C, to automatically aid quicker re-heat times. Once 43C is reached, the immersion element switches off, leaving just the compressor running until the desired water temperature is reached. Note that ELEC.BACKP will not occur if the timer is in ECO or F/P mode - it must be in COMF mode.


To switch off this ""TºC min = 43C" function, press MENU, turn dial to "Inst.Menu" then hold MENU & CLOCK buttons down until the screen changes. Go to settings -> TºC Min and set to "no".
