[12] Alarms
The unit provides the following alarm features. If an alarm condition should occur, check for a
possible cause of the alarm and take the correct measures. If the alarm is caused most likely
by a failure, the unit needs to be repaired. Indicate on the incubator that it is out of order and
contact your local Atom representative.
After the power has been turned on or a setting value has been changed, the set temperature
alarm does not function for 50 minutes. If you changed the set temperature during transport,
watch the infant condition carefully. However, when the incubator temperature becomes ±3°C
of the set value within 50 minutes, the set temperature alarm activates at that time.
