Locating and clearing a jam
This section describes how to determine when a jam occurs in
the 301 DFS, illustrates the location of the jam clearance labels
affixed to the 301 DFS, and outlines the procedures for
clearing jams.
Determining when a jam occurs in the 301 DFS
When the 301 DFS experiences a jam, the following events
will occur:
• The Attention Lamp, if enabled, will flash every 15
seconds.
• The Sound Tone, if enabled, will beep every 15 seconds.
• A red light will light on the Mimic Display at the location
of the jam.
• The Message Display will provide information about the
jam.
