not be used for more than a day, it is best to turn off the instrument. Use the following
procedure only if the system has been switched off.

Refer to the SOFTmax PRO operator’s manual for software installation and
registration instructions. These instructions assume the software is completely loaded on
your computer and you are ready to begin an experiment.

The instrument automatically performs diagnostic checks to ensure that it is
functioning correctly. All three drawers open and shut. After about four minutes, the
control panel should display the temperature inside the reading chamber. The reading
chamber drawer automatically opens.
After about five minutes, the instrument will be warmed up and ready.
Note:
There will be no set point temperature displayed at this point because the
incubator has not been turned on.
