ALARM SIGNALS
IMPORTANT ! Malfunctions and alarm s displayed b y the machine should NEVER b e ignored. The problem should b e checked and resolved as soon as po ssible. If the alarm re-occurs, call technical assistance.

If the al arm is a type A alarm, it will be automatic ally res et. If the alar m is a type M al arm, you will need to press the ALARM key for 3 sec onds to reset it. If the alarm is a type A3M alar m, it will be automaticall y reset 3 times and will then need to be manuall y res et.

If the unit's elec tronic boar d detec ts any malfunctions, the AL ARM key will light up on the control panel and the alar m code in ques tion will appear on the displ ay, with r eference to the following table.

UNIT S TART-UP AND S TARTUP AFTER PROLONGED SHUTDOWN

DANGER ! Always use the switch to isolate the unit from the mains b efore carr ying out an y mainten ance work, even if it is for inspection purposes only. Make sur e that no one accidentally supplies po wer to the machine, lock the m ains switch in the OFF position.

Befor e starti ng the unit, perfor m the following chec ks : The el ectricity power suppl y must c ompl y with the specifications on the data plate and/or the wiring diagram and it must fall within the followi ng limits: Variation of the power suppl y frequenc y: 2 Hz. variation of the power suppl y voltage: 10% of the nominal voltage; imbal ance between the suppl y phas es: <2% . the electrical power s uppl y s ys tem must be able to suppl y adequate current and be suitabl y sized to handle the load; open the electric panel and make s ure the terminals of the power suppl y and of the c ontactors are tight (they may have c ome loose during trans port, which c ould lead to malfunctions); Electrical connec tions must be made in compliance with the l ocal installation standards i n force in the plac e where the unit is i nstalled, and with the i nstructions in the wiring diagram provided with the unit.
