and the patient alert system –Service Required light and audible signal — will briefly alarm.
NOTE—If the Service Required light illuminates and the audible signal alarms but the unit is not operating,
there is no power to the unit, Refer to the Minor Troubleshooting chart not page 8 and contact your HINOR
provider if necessary.
NOTE—If an audible low-frequency vibration sound is detected, the unit is not operating properly. Refer to
the Minor Troubleshooting chart on page 8, and contact your HINOR provider if necessary.
