4.5.1 Checking the voltage
The HistoCore AUTOCUT can be connected to various electrical power grids (depending on voltage
and frequency). New instruments are factory-set to 230 volts. This is documented by a yellow label
(230 VOLT) on the rear of the instrument, which covers the power switch and power socket.
Warning
Wrong voltage of power supply selected at the voltage selector.
Instrument damage, delay of specimen processing.
• Assure to select the voltage fitting to your mains voltage before plugging in the instrument.
• When changing the voltage selector setting, the instrument must be disconnected from the mains.

the instrument is switched to "O" = OFF.
• Make sure that the power cable used has the correct plug for the power socket.
• Insert the connector of the power cable into the connection socket
( → "Fig. 16- 7 ") and plug the power
