The time and duration of the power failure are documented in the log memory. In timer or programme mode In case of an interruption of the power supply of less than 60 minutes, the current pro- gramme is continued from the point at which it was interrupted.
Menu mode Menu mode In menu mode, you can make basic settings, load programmes and export protocols, as well as adjust appliance parameters. Caution: Before changing menu settings, read the description of the respective functions on the fol- lowing pages to avoid possible damage to the appliance and/or chamber load. To enter menu mode, press the MENU key.

Menu mode Example: 1. Interval begins – dehumidification peltier modules cool at full power and generate coldest point (-12°C), depending on the set time interval. 2. Interval duration expired – dehumidification peltier modules are not operated for a short time, resulting in a local rise in temperature. The ice thaws and the melt water is chan- nelled out.
Menu mode 7.4 Date and Time Time In the display, you can set date and time, time zone and daylight saving time. Changes can only be made in manual operating mode. Always set the time zone (and summer time yes/no) before you set the date and time. Avoid changing the set time after that since this can lead to gaps or overlapping when recording measured values.
Menu mode 7. Set daylight savings to off () or on ) with the turn control – in this case Date 12 . 05 . 2012 on ( ). Save the setting by pressing the Time 12 : 00 confirmation key.

Menu mode 7.8 Protocol The appliance continually logs all relevant measured values, settings and error messages at 1-minute intervals. The internal log memory is of the continuous memory type. The logging function cannot be switched off and is always active. The measured data are stored in the appliance, safe from manipulation.
Menu mode 7.9 User-ID 7.9.1 Description With the User-ID function, you can lock the settings of individual (e.g. temperature) or all parameters, so that they cannot be changed at the appliance by accident or unauthorised persons. You can also lock setting options in menu mode (e.g. adjustment or date and time settings) this way.
Maintenance and service Maintenance and service 8.1 Cleaning Warning! Danger due to electric shock. Before doing any maintenance work, pull out the mains plug. Warning! In case of appliances of a certain size, you can get accidentally locked in, which is life-threatening. Do not climb into the appliance! Caution! Danger of cuts due to sharp edges.
Maintenance and service 8.2 Regular maintenance Once a year, grease the moving parts of the doors (hinges and lock) with thin silicone grease and check that the hinge screws are not loose. To guarantee perfect control, we recommend to calibrate the appliance once a year (see page 49).
