Tips to Prevent Consumables from Getting Wet Again
To prevent consumables from getting damp again, users can put desiccant in the desiccant tank. At the same time, use the silicone plug in the accessory bag to block unnecessary outlet holes (do not block the outlet holes while the machine is running to avoid internal moisture being unable to be discharged).
(Image description: The image shows the inside of the dryer's filament compartment. One part of the image highlights the desiccant tank. Another part shows a silicone plug, with an arrow indicating its use to block outlet holes.)
Troubleshooting Guide
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cannot boot. | Abnormal power connection. | Check if the power cord is well connected to the socket and check if the fuse is blown. |
| Display is garbled/incomplete. | Poor contact or bad display. | Shut down and restart. If the problem still persists, you need to replace the display. |
| ER1 | Abnormal temperature detection. | Check whether the temperature sensor connection is good. |
| ER2 | Abnormal PTC heating fan. | Check if the fan does not rotate or is stuck by a foreign object. |
