3.2 ALARMS
The BW 585 can trigger two types of temperature alarm:
The low temperature alarm is activated when the temperature of the heat
exchanger drops below 36.5°C. The audio low temperature alarm is deactivated
during the first 60 seconds after switching on.
The high temperature alarm is activated when the temperature of the heat
exchanger exceeds 42.0°C. In this event visual and audio alarm signals are
given and the heating is switched off. To reset the device or switch off the alarm,
the device must first be disconnected from the power supply.
