Running the Selftest
Selftest is a safety utility that allows you to make sure that your monitor is working properly. Selftest runs
separately from the routine tests that run independently while the monitor operates.
During Selftest, your monitor automatically runs tests that cause the monitor to beep, vibrate and show
different screens. If the monitor detects a condition such as low battery, Selftest stops and shows a
message explaining why it stopped.
Contact the HelpLine or your local representative if any of the tests do not run as described below.
1
Open the UTILITIES MENU.
MAIN MENU > Utilities
2
Select Selftest.
