1. Safety
The following symbols mean:-
Caution: Read these operating instructions fully before use and pay particular attention to
sections containing this symbol
Caution: Surfaces can become hot during use.
Always observe the following safety precautions

Use only as specified by the operating instructions, or the intrinsic protection may be impaired.

After transport or storage in humid conditions, dry out the unit before connecting it to the
supply voltage.

Connect only to a power supply with a voltage corresponding to that on the serial number
label.

Connect only to a power supply which provides a safety earth (ground) terminal.

Ensure that the mains switch and isolating device (power supply connector) are easily accessible
during use.

Before moving, disconnect at the power supply socket.

Do not check the temperature by touch, use the temperature display or a thermometer.

To reduce the risk of eye injury during high temperature operation, use safety goggles or
spectacles.

Do not touch surfaces which become hot during high temperature operation.

Ensure that the operating temperature is less than the maximum operating temperature of
your sample material.

Set the adjustable overtemperature cut-out after setting or changing the working temperature,
and reset it at monthly intervals to check that the cut-out is operating correctly.

Do not block or restrict ventilation slots.

If liquid is spilt inside the unit, disconnect it from the power supply and have it checked by a
competent person.

It is the user‟s responsibility to carry out appropriate decontamination if hazardous material is
spilt on or inside the equipment.

Do not connect to a power supply or switch on before filling the tank.

Take care when topping up or draining, as the liquid in the tank may be very hot or cold.

If the alarm lamp is illuminated do not touch the liquid or the heater, they may be very hot.
Refill carefully, a hot heater can cause a spattering of very hot water droplets and scalding
steam.

Do not place removable control units on a flammable surface.

Always use a lid or polypropylene spheres when operating above 60°C. Take care when
raising and removing the lid, it may be hot. Steam and hot vapours can cause scalding.

Drain before moving the bath. Before draining allow the liquid to cool to below 50°C or heat to
above 10°C.

Use only liquids specified in the operating instructions, within the specified temperature range.
If the alarm lamp is illuminated the liquid temperature may be above its recommended
maximum: do not inhale the vapours given off as they may be toxic; liquids should be safely
discarded and replaced.

When pumping to external apparatus, always use connecting pipe or hose suitable for the
operating temperature and liquid used, and check that the pipe connections are secure.

Do not disconnect any pipes or hoses while they contain very hot or cold liquid.

For indoor use only. Do not use outdoors
