Events Requiring Technical Assistance
CAUTION!
The System has multiple internal alarm states - see Alarms & Corrective
Actions.
As described in this manual, some are remedied by the user action e.g. Filling
the coldwell with coolant will rectify the coolant level alarm.
There are others that may be alleviated, in some cases, by power cycling the
System.(i.e. turning it off and then back on).
If neither user action nor power cycling the system clears the alarm – DO NOT
USE THE SYSTEM. Call ZOLL Service Representative for service of any
alarm that does not clear.
Immediately discontinue using the System and seek advice from your ZOLL
service representative if any of the following events occur:
The System repeatedly trips an outlet equipped with a ground fault
circuit interrupter (GFCI).
The protective fuse repeatedly blows.
Fluid is observed leaking from the console.
The System emits an unusual odor when operating.
The System produces loud or unusual noises when operating.
The display screen, control knob, or control buttons fail to operate as
expected.
The System has been exposed to fire, flood, or hazardous
substances.
The System has suffered potential damage due to improper storage,
rough handling, or being dropped.
