This table lists the fault messages you might encounter, their severity, and a description,
including information on what action clears the fault. In many cases, the fault clears itself if
the condition causing the fault is resolved. In some cases, the fault does not clear—you
must acknowledge or delete it to dismiss it.
Critical faults
