GENERAL PROBLEMS
INTRODUCTION
If you run into a problem or alarm while using the device, you should
not
be immediately concerned.
It may not, in fact, be related to a breakdown but, more probably to an anomalous situation, often merely transitory (such as a
blackout), or incorrect use.
In any case, it is important to first identify the cause of the anomaly and then take suitable corrective action, either autonomously or
with the help of the
Technical Support Department (see Appendix Z)
.
For this purpose, below, we provide instructions for diagnosing and resolving general problems, in addition to a precise description of
the alarm codes, their meaning and their solution.
