ENTER.
2) Now press the down-arrow key until you reach the alarm you want to acknowl-
edge. Press ENTER.
3) Press the down-arrow key until the LCD displays Acknowledge Alarm. Press
ENTER and the alarm will be acknowledged. If you continue to press the down-
arrow key, the Acknowledge All option will be displayed. If you press ENTER
while this message is showing, all alarms will be acknowledged.
