The tightness test can only be performed if the pres-
sure downstream of V2 is around atmospheric pressure
and the volume downstream of V2 is at least 5 x higher
than the volume between the valves.
If the power fails briefly during the test or during opera-
tion, the TC will restart in accordance with the test pro-
cedure described above.
If there is a fault message, the fault is displayed again
after a power failure.
