Use only as specified by the operating instructions, or the intrinsic protection may be impaired.
After transport or storage in humid conditions, dry out the unit before connecting it to the supply
voltage. During drying out the intrinsic protection may be impaired.
Connect only to a power supply with a voltage corresponding to that on the serial number label.
Connect only to a power supply which provides a safety earth (ground) terminal.
Before moving, disconnect at the power supply socket. Do not remove the IEC connector (where
applicable).
Do not check the temperature by touch, use the temperature display or a thermometer.
To reduce the risk of eye injury during high temperature operation, use safety goggles or spectacles.
Do not touch surfaces which become hot during high temperature operation.
Ensure that the operating temperature is less than the maximum operating temperature of your
sample material.
Set the adjustable over temperature cut-out (where applicable) after setting or changing the set

removing the lid, it may be hot. Steam and hot vapours can cause scalding.
Drain before moving the bath. Before draining allow the liquid to cool to below 50°C or heat to above
