GENERAL 

 

In case of a malfunction of the system, the display (1) will indicate a code that identifies the system malfunction. 

The error codes listed in the Malfunction Table will identify various faults that can occur with the LMI. Following 

the Malfunction Table are pages which explain each fault and describe the action which shall be taken to correct 

the fault. 

Faults within the electronic microprocessor shall be repaired by factory trained service personnel. When these 

faults occur, the competent service organization shall be contacted.
