Immediate start - The cooling fan does not operate at all during the cycle.
Delayed start -
In both cases the fan will switch off automatically when the cycle has reached the complete
stage.

Media Warming

If this highly useful feature is selected the autoclave will cool to a factory pre-set temperature
o
of 45
C. The temperature will then cycle between approximately 45
opened. This allows, for example, nutrient media to be held as a liquid until it is needed,
especially when used along with the delayed start function.

Delayed Start Time

The autoclave can be set before a cycle to start at a pre-set time.
To access these settings turn & hold the thermal lock key in the override position. Press the
time up or down keys. Release the thermal lock key. 1 is displayed on the temperature
display, by default 0 will displayed on the time display. The temperature display now shows
the number of a list of operating parameters, the value for the parameter is shown in the time
display. Scroll through the list of available parameters using the temperature up/down keys.
After no keys are pressed for eight seconds the display returns to normal.
The function of these settings is as follows:

The time is set in real time, therefore the clock has to be correctly set for this to work
properly.
After one delayed start operation, delayed start automatically switches off, and the
autoclave returns to normal operation.
For instructions on setting the clock time and for other operator settings please refer to the
section Changing Date & Time later in this manual.
