The Kidde-Graviner fire system has its own computer to monitor all the fire detection system and extinguishers, which I test every time the Car is switched on. If the fire system gives an unusual reading I need to be able to work out what it means and how we can fix it, so this list of lights and their meanings could be very useful... although I have only ever seen the brief flash as the system self-tests and says it's working and that is probably all I will ever see from it, I carry this list just in case...
The fire system is a luxury that the Phantom never had, so I feel much safer with all this technology looking after me than I used to!

If a fire has been detected and an extinguisher fired, a self-test cannot be carried out until the control unit has been recycled through Off. |
