4 Location and Installation
4.1
Your incubator will give best results in a room free from wide temperature variations and with generous
ventilation – particularly if several incubators are running at the same time. Ensure that the room
temperature cannot drop on a cold night. Ideally thermostatically control the room at between 20 and
25°C (68 and 77°F).
Never allow the room temperature to drop below 17°C (63°F) and ensure that
the incubator cannot be exposed to direct sunlight.
4.2
ONLY USE THE POWER SUPPLY UNIT SUPPLIED WITH THE PRODUCT. USE OF A
DIFFERENT POWER SUPPLY MAY CAUSE A HAZARD AND WILL INVALIDATE ANY
WARANTEE.
4.3
Place the incubator and water pump on a flat, level surface that is resistant to moisture and scratching.
The base of the incubator must sit flat on the surface as this traps air under it as part of the thermal
insulation.
