NOTICE
The sound from an audio warning horn indicates that a critical fault malfunction has occurred. Operating a power package
with a critical fault can damage components. If the audio warning horn emits a sound, do not continue operations unless
avoiding a hazardous situation.
If the audio warning sounds, stop the engine immediately if you are not in a hazardous situation. Investigate the cause and
correct it, if possible. If you cannot determine the cause, consult an authorized repair facility.
