ASSEMBLY

INSTALLATION

The Thermasonic Gel Warmer should be placed away from drafts, in an upright position on a flat, stable surface. Do not lay the unit flat on any side. The unit may also be wall mounted. See wall mounting instructions. Plug female end of power cord into IEC320/C14 receptacle and male end into an appropriate electrical outlet matching the voltage listed on the electrical information label on the back of the gel warmer.

*NOTE: UK power cord with a BS -1363 plug (Part #: UKCORD) is available in the United Kingdom, as an accessory from your distributor.

WALL MOUNTING

The Thermasonic Gel Warmer can be wall mounted with use of the supplied screws and wall anchors. Follow these steps to wall mount.

1. Once wall mount location has been identified, make two marks on the wall 1.75 inches (4.45 cm) apart. When making marks, use a level to assure the Gel Warmer will appear straight when complete.
2. If mounting into wood, install screws, and allow 0.1" (2.5mm) clearance between the wall and the screw head. If mounting into drywall, the use of wall anchors is necessary.
   
   Never drill or install screws in a wall with wires or plumbing running through it.
3. Carefully position the Gel Warmer so the large round wells (see Figure 2) on the back of the unit will pass over the screw heads.
   
4. Press the Gel Warmer against the wall and slide downward, trapping the screw head in the grooves just above the wells.

OPERATION

HEAT INDICATOR LAMP

The Heat Indicator Lamp will blink while the unit is approaching the set temperature. Once that temperature has been reached, the lamp will remain illuminated. Should the unit restart the heating process, the Heat Indicator Lamp will again begin to blink.

OPERATING THE GEL WARMER

The Gel Warmer will warm a full (40°C) bottle of gel to 104°F (40°C).

Temperature can vary. Always test a small quantity of gel before applying.

Allow approximately two hours for a full bottle of gel to reach proper temperature. Your Thermasonic Gel Warmer is designed for continuous operation, and it is not necessary to disconnect the warmer when not in use.

EROR CODES

The Thermasonic Gel Warmer contains a temperature sensor to consistently monitor functions and a Microtemp^® thermal cutoff to protect against overheating.

If the temperature sensor is not operating at all, the Heat Indicator Lamp will blink once every five seconds. If a short circuit occurs, the Heat Indicator Lamp will blink twice every five seconds. In either circumstance, the heater will not operate.
