FUNCTION PROBLEMS

The machine beeps without the
keys being pressed.

If the water cooler is enabled and
the flow switch inside the water
cooler opens (due to inadequate
coolant flow rate), the machine
indicates this by beeping. This
happens regardless of the overlay
placed on the machine. In this
case, do the following.

1. Turn the machine off and on a

couple of times and see if the
beeping continues. If the flow
rate dropped momentarily, then
turning the machine off and on
eliminates the beeping. A
momentary drop in flow rate
could be due to a temporary
restriction in the water cooler
hose.

2. Check the water cooler and

accessory hoses for kinks,
internal obstructions or block-
age, or ruptures. If such prob-
lems were found then correct
them. Turn the machine Off
and On to check if the beeping
has been eliminated.

3. Check the water cooler fluid

level. Low coolant level could
cause the flow rate to drop.

4. Prime the water cooler. Refer

to the Setup Overlay section
of this manual for instructions.

1. Perform the Auxiliary

Transformer #2 Test.

2. The water cooler may be

defective. Replace.

3. Check the continuity of lead

#453, 454, 455 & 456 from
plug J3 to J11. See wiring dia-
gram.

4. The display board may be

faulty. Replace.
