1. The LED status indicator light does not turn red after the HYDROCORE is connected to the HYDROLYSER SOLUTION A Disconnect the HYDROLYSER and re connect it again slowly Make sure the connection is smooth and the HYDROCORE is fully inserted into the thread SOLUTION B Check that the water level in the tanks are correct see operating instructions SOLUTION C Remove and re connect the AC DC adapter The cartridge has been charging for more than 6 hours but the LED light is still red SOLUTION A Disconnect the cartridge and re connect it tightly and correctly SOLUTION B Disconnect the cartridge and connect it to a fuel cell product to confirm there is hydrogen in the cartridge One way to check the volume of hydrogen inside a cartridge is to weigh the HYDROCORE before and after filling it using a precision scale The weight difference between a full and an empty HYDROCORE is around 0 9 grams The LED light alternates between red for 1 second and off for 3 seconds SOLUTION Try to add 40 C to 70 C water into the water tank The LED light alternates between red for 1 second and off for 1 second SOLUTION Check the water level of the water tank and waste water tank is correct Either add water to the water tank or remove water from the waste water tank as required The LED light turns green the cartridge has been charging for 6 hours but no or little hydrogen is filled SOLUTION A Check the HYDROCORE to ensure it2.
