AFTER USE

When you have finished heating samples, remember that parts of the unit – the tubes, blocks and
associated accessories – may be very hot. Take the precautions listed earlier.

GUARANTEE

the enclosed guarantee card. This period is from the date of purchase, and within this period all

accident or negligence. Servicing under this guarantee should be obtained from the supplier.
Notwithstanding the description and specification(s) of the units contained in the Operator's
Manual, Techne hereby reserves the right to make such changes as it sees fit to the units or to
any component of the units.

description, merchantability, fitness for purpose or otherwise of the units or components.

OPERATOR MAINTENANCE

NOTE: THAT THIS EQUIPMENT SHOULD ONLY BE DISMANTLED BY PROPERLY TRAINED
PERSONNEL. REMOVING THE SIDE, FRONT OR REAR PANELS EXPOSES POTENTIALLY
LETHAL MAINS VOLTAGES. THERE ARE NO OPERATOR MAINTAINABLE PARTS WITHIN
THE EQUIPMENT.
In the unlikely event that you experience any problems with your unit which cannot easily be
remedied, you should contact your supplier and return the unit if necessary. Please include any
details of the fault observed and remember to return the unit in its original packing. Techne
accept no responsibility for damage to units which are not properly packed for shipping: if in
doubt, contact your supplier. See the Decontamination Certificate supplied with your unit.
1. Cleaning
Before cleaning your unit ALWAYS disconnect it from the power supply and allow it to cool below
50°C.
Your unit can be cleaned by wiping with a damp soapy cloth. Care should be exercised to prevent
water from running inside the unit. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
2. Overtemperature cutout
In the event of no heater power, check the mains plug and lead. Repeated operation of the cutout
indicates a serious fault: you may need to return the unit to your supplier for repair.
3. Fuses
Your unit is protected by fuses. These should only be changed by suitably qualified personnel. If
the fuses blow persistently, a serious fault is indicated and you may need to return the unit to your
supplier for repair.
