After a discharge, how should the system be reset?

• A. Automatic reset
• B. 24-hour wait
• C. Requires a service technician
• D. Manual reset

Answer: (D)

After a discharge, the system must be reset manually. This ensures the control head is rearmed only after you’ve verified and completed the necessary maintenance—recharging the agent and inspecting components as required. Automatic resetting isn’t used because it could re-arm a depleted or faulty system, and waiting a fixed time isn’t a standard procedure. While recharge and servicing are typically done by a technician, the reset action itself is a manual step performed according to the manufacturer’s procedure.
