2. Press the CLEAR ALARM soft key to acknowledge the alarm (and silence the
alarm if it was not done with the [CLEAR] key). For the color model, the
speaker icon changes from red to background color. The speaker icon
remains on the screen until the reason for the alarm is eliminated or the
alarm is disabled. If more than one alarm has been violated the message
CONTINUE appears at the bottom of the alarm information window. In this
case, press the NEXT INFO soft key to see which other alarms have been
violated.
Note:
For the color model, the alarm icon is red when an alarm setting is
violated, and changes to background color when the [CLEAR] key or
CLEAR ALARM soft key is pressed. The color does not change
regardless of how many other alarms are violated.
3. Press the [ALARM] key to close the alarm menu.
