Important Safety Instructions - Exo Terra PT2459 Manual De Instrucciones

Both the daytime and nighttime temperatures can be set separately
to guarantee safe daytime-nighttime temperature fluctuations for
your reptiles. The dimming function keeps the temperature at the
desired setpoint with a much higher accuracy than conventional
thermostats and virtually eliminates temperature swings in the
terrarium. The easy-to-read blue LCD screen shows actual and set
temperature, and will automatically increase brightness of the LCD
in day mode and use dim light when in night mode. A Red LED and
a heating symbol will indicate when the heating device is switched
ON. Once the set temperature is reached, the LED will switch to
Blue and the heating symbol will no longer show. The temperature
probe with built-in light sensor switches automatically between
daytime and nighttime temperature setting, based on the light
intensity. Simply connect your Heat Mat, Heat Cable, Ceramic Heater
or Heat Bulb to the Exo Terra
the preferred daytime and nighttime temperatures and place the
heat sensor in the desired spot. The push button/dial system of the
thermostat will prevent accidental changes of the set temperature if
the device is being handled. The Thermostat comes with a 6.2 foot
/ 190cm power-cord with grounded plug & receptacle for increased
safety and to allow the use of a power outlet strip. The waterproof
remote sensor can be safely used in highly moist terrariums and
aquatic environments.
The Exo Terra Thermostat should be set according to the needs
®
of the animals. Thoroughly research the preferred optimum
temperature range (POTR) for your specific reptile, so you can create
the correct temperature gradients inside the terrarium to allow your
reptiles to thermoregulate.
