Power failure during fixed-value operation (Normal Display):
The entered parameters remain saved. After power returns, operation continues with the set parameters.
Power failure during program operation:
After the power returns, program course continues with the set-points that have been reached previously
during program operation.
11.2 Alarm messages

Safety device class 2 (DIN 12880:2007)
The temperature safety device protects the vacuum drying oven, its environment and the charging mate-
rial from exceeding the maximum permissible temperature.
Please observe the DGUV guidelines 213-850 on safe working in laboratories (formerly BGI/GUV-I 850-
0, BGR/GUV-R 120 or ZH 1/119, issued by the employers' liability insurance association) (for Germany).
The temperature safety device only activates after the set-point has been reached once.
Set the safety-device to the maximally permitted drying temperature according to the information panel
"temperature setting" (chap. 2.5), to prevent exceeding the maximum drying temperature in case of a
default. In the event of a fault in the temperature controller, the safety device (2) permanently turns off
the vacuum drying oven. This status is reported visually by the indicator lamp (2a).
Check the operation of the safety device (2) by moving it slowly counter-clockwise until it is turned off.
The safety device cut-off is reported visually by the indicator lamp (2a).
Then release the safety device by pressing the reset button (2b), and turn on the VDL vacuum drying
oven as described previously.
