Alarm Function
The red Alarm LED will flash and an audible alert will

appropriate pressure is restored. The audible alarm
can be silenced by pressing the Alarm Mute button.

which can be identified by five different Pressure
Setting illumination sequences. The signals and
corresponding Pressure Setting LED displays are
