Turning The System On (cont)
Determine which zone or zones are not ready, resolve the problem, and
turn the system on normally. If the problem cannot be resolved, you may
bypass the zone that is not ready. Bypassing should only be done if the
problem on the zone cannot be resolved, OR if you intentionally wish to
leave the zone off. For example, you would leave the zone off if you plan to
keep the window open for ventilation. Zones that are bypassed are not
protected when the system is on. See Bypass on the following page for a
description of the procedure.
