Note:
1. The above power failure alarm is available when the battery switch is ON and the battery is charged.
If the battery switch is OFF or the battery is discharged, only the remote alarm is activated.
2. The power failure alarm can be kept about 12 hours with the battery charged completely. 2-day
operation of the freezer is needed to charge the battery full.
3. The chamber temperature is displayed for 5 seconds if the BUZZER key is depressed during the power
failure alarm. At the same time, the alarm stops.
4. The remote alarm is silenced by pressing BUZZER key as the remote alarm is operated in conjunction
with the buzzer, except for the power failure alarm.
5. After power failure, the operation is resumed with the condition before power failure since the
temperature setting and alarm temperature setting are memorized in a nonvolatile memory.
