18 STARTING THE MACHINE
18.1 Power on
If the machine is restarted within 10 minutes of its last shutdown, Airpad production will begin immediately (a
few seconds may be required if the program is changed, in order for the heat-seal units to come to
temperature). The machine stays heat-controlled during the production of air pillows. At shutdown, the
temperature of the heat-seal units remains constant for a set amount of time before entering energy-saving
mode. These parameters may be set by Technical Assistance.
The machine may only be started in automatic mode.

ESC KEY - press this key to leave the current program and return to the main menu
without saving any data.
NUMERICAL KEYPAD - used also as arrows.
