General Information
Alarms
An alarm message appears across the top graphics display
screen identifying the various alarm conditions. In addition, the
alarm light at the top of the control panel housing activates and
an audio alarm sounds.
The audio tone varies with the alarm’s priority: an alternating
two tone alarm indicates a critical alarm that triggers automatic
heater shutdown; an intermittent single tone alarm is used for
other alarms. The alarm light remains on continuously for over
temperature and system failure alarms; it blinks for all other
alarms.
With the exception of the system failure and power failure
alarms, all audio alarms can be silenced by pressing the alarm
silence button located above the graphics screen. At the end of
the alarm silence period the alarm reactivates if the alarm
condition has not been resolved. If two or more alarm condi-
tions occur at the same time, the audio signal for the highest
priority alarm will sound while all the alarm messages will
alternately appear at the top of the graphics screen. If you
select the Help icon during an alarm condition, the description
of that particular alarm will automatically appear on the screen.

High Air Temperature
Active only when the canopy is closed and the unit is in the air
mode, the High Air Temperature alarm triggers when the
temperature measured by the compartment probe exceeds the
air temperature you set previously by more than 1.5°C. The
audio alarm is suspended for ten minutes when you push the
alarm silence button. This alarm usually occurs when you have
just lowered the air set temperature, or when you have
changed from baby to air control mode. Monitor the unit
closely to assure the air temperature decreases.
Low Air Temperature
Active only when the canopy is closed and the unit is in the air
mode, the Low Air Temperature alarm triggers when the
temperature measured by the compartment probe falls more
than 3.0°C below the air temperature you set previously. The
audio alarm is suspended for a ten minute period when you
push the alarm silence button. This alarm usually occurs when
the doors are open without using Air Curtain Boost, when the
canopy has just been lowered, or when both doors are open at
the same time. Monitor the unit closely to assure the air
temperature increases.
Note: The Low Temperature alarm is suspended for 60 minutes
when the unit is first turned on, for 30 minutes after the canopy is
closed, and 15 minutes after the set point is increased.
