Self-diagnostic procedure using display mode
If the timer lamp and operation lamp blinks during operation, the problem can be diagnosed using the following table.
Note: 1. The breakdown diagnossis can be diagnosed by the LED lamps by pushing the "AUX." button for 5 seconds
or more while operation stops.
Normal : Only the timer lamp blinks. Error : Displayed by combined blinking of operation lamp and
timer lamp (below table).
2. If the breaker is switched to "OFF", the self-diagnostic
memory will be erased.
