buzzer from the unit.
Possible Cause: The AC Mains Voltage exceeded 132VAC or the voltage dropped below 101VAC.
Action Needed: MeasuretheACmainsbeforetheETA-ECS3.Ifthevoltageisbetween117VACand123VACyoumayproceedtoreset
theETA-ECS3byrestartingthestartupsequence.

Possible Cause: Although the Dual Clamping Suppression (DCS) circuit virtually assures protection from most transient voltage spikes
and surges, nature has a way of occasionally creating electrical forces that are beyond the capabilities of any device
to absorb without some degree of damage. In the rare instance that this occurs, the DCS circuit has been damaged
during the suppression.
Action Needed: Ifthishappens,theETA-ECS3willshutoffandtheunitwillneedtoberepairedorreplaced.Itisimportanttohaveall
