PF fault won’t clear

A PF fault on a Foster G2 Series unit means there has been a mains power failure that affected the internal air temperature (only if the unit was not in standby mode). When mains power is restored, the cabinet continues to operate and adjust the temperature as needed. The PF warning will sound and display until the alarm button is pressed and released to cancel it. It is recommended to inspect the contents of the unit after a PF fault.

To fix the PF (Power Failure) alarm and sound issue on a Foster G2 Series unit when the power button is unresponsive:

1. Ensure the mains power is restored and the plug is securely connected.
2. Confirm the unit is not in standby mode.
3. Check the system controller is illuminated.
4. Make sure the fuse in the fuse box is intact.
5. Inspect the unit's placement to ensure no external hot or cold sources are affecting it.
6. Clean the condenser to ensure proper function.
7. Press and release the alarm button to cancel the PF alarm.

If the power button remains unresponsive after these checks, inspect for electrical faults or contact a technician.
