Section OPERATION Read this section in its entirety before attempting operation. Connect service cord to grounded outlet. Set temperatures before connecting CO supply to the incubator. CAUTION: HUMIDIFICATION OF THIS UNIT POSES A SHOCK HAZARD DUE TO NON VAPOR PROOF ENTERIOR OUTLETS. USE OUTLETS WITH CAUTION. Getting Started: Turn the High Limit Thermostat to its maximum position, clockwise. - Page 11 set point, the High Limit needs to be adjusted. Previously turned to its maximum position as stated in section 5.1, now turn the control knob counterclockwise just until the SAFETY ACTIVATED indicator light comes on. Next, turn the control knob clockwise just until the indicator light goes off. Then turn the control knob clockwise two (2) of the smallest divisions on its scale past the point where the indicator light went off.
- Page 12 5.10 Setting CO Controller: To set the CO percent you desire press either the UP or DOWN arrow pad until the digital display begins to blink from bright to dim. While blinking, the display is showing the current set point which can be changed by pushing the UP and DOWN arrow pads until the desired value is reached.
