Residual heat warning (HOT)
To prevent the risk of burns from the hotplate, this instrument has
residual heat warning function. When heating is stopped, and the heating
plate temperature is still above 50°C, the setting indicator will light up to
warn that there’s potential risk of burns. When the hotplate temperature
drops to below 50°C, the instrument will be automatically powered off.
To turn off the instrument immediately, pull out the plug. In case of main
power failure or disconnection, the residual heat warning will not work.
Stirring
Stirring is switched on / off by pressing the speed setting knob. The
speed is set by rotating the knob in the range of 50-1500rpm.
