  Installation 

 

1. Remove the packing tape and clean up. 

Remove all the tapes that are securing the doors and the inner attachments. Open the doors for ventilation. 
If the outer panels are dirty, wet a cloth with a diluted neutral detergent and wipe them. (Undiluted 
detergent can damage the plastic components. For the dilution, refer to the instruction of the detergent.) 
Wipe off the residual detergent with a wet cloth and then wipe off any moisture. 

Note:

 Remove the cable tie banding the power supply cord.    Prolonged banding may cause the corrosion 

of the cord coating. 
 

WARNING

 

Do not leave the plastic wrapping bags within reach of children.

 If the bag is placed over a child’s 

head, it can block the mouth and nose and cause suffocation. 

 
2.

 Set the humidifying pan and humidifying pan cover (Fig. 1).

 

 

3.

 Set 4 trays (Fig. 2).

 

 

 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 

 
 
(When an optional small door (MCO-170ID) is installed) 
To effectively use of the gastight split doors, set 3 trays at the same level as bottom side of each gastight 
split door (Fig. 3).
