Initial Set-up
This will need to be performed BEFORE placing eggs in the incubator!
1. Place the Incubator on a flat, even surface.
2. Make sure that the Incubator does not receive direct sunlight
(overheating) or drafts (undercooling). Ideal operating
environment is an ambient room temperature of 18°-22°C (65°-
72°F).
3. Check if the AC/DC switch on the back of the device is set on
AC, then connect the plug to the wall receptacle. Push the on/
off button located on the front panel of the Incubator to switch
on the device. The unit will begin working and the LED digital
display will show the current temperature inside the unit.
4. Interior Light: if desired press the light switch on the front control
panel to turn the interior light on or off.
5. Set the preferred incubation temperature, ranging from 15° to
40°C (59° to 104°F) depending on the species, using the 'up
arrow' or 'down arrow' buttons located on the front panel. The
'up arrow' button increases the temperature, the 'down arrow"
button will decrease the temperature. While using the up/down
buttons, the LED digital display will show the temperature of
the setting. Once the desired setting is made, the LED display
will blink twice and then return to "normal" display, showing the
current temperature inside the unit. The unit will automatically
switch to heating or cooling mode based on the set incubation
temperature. WARNING: Although the Incubator may be
set as low as 2°C (35°F) or as high as 60°C (140°F), these
extreme settings are not recommended.
6. Fill the water tray with regular tap water (do not use
HOT water). The water in the slide out tray in the
bottom of the unit will add humidity to the
environment to prevent rapid desiccation
of the incubation medium. Keep this
tray filled with water throughout
the incubation period! Since
evaporation depends on the
temperature, it is
advisable to
check the
water-level
on a daily basis.
Place a deeper container
with water in the incubator if daily checks are not possible.
7. Now place appropriate egg incubating containers (size
depending on the species, egg-size and amount of eggs),
holding moistened egg incubation medium of your choice (at this
stage do not yet place eggs in the incubator!), in the incubator
(please read notes on preparation of the incubation medium and
incubation of reptile eggs below).
8. Place one or more analog or digital thermometers (for instance
PT2472 Digital Thermometer or PT2470 Thermo-Hygrometer)
at the exact spot of the incubating containers (or even in the
incubating container) to check the correct temperature at the
egg incubation site.
9. Close the Incubator door, and let the unit run for about 24 hours,
then check the temperature at the egg incubating containers.
