Please Note:
Your incubator will be factory set for hen eggs, you may wish to adjust the temperature in the menu to suit the types
of eggs you are incubating.
As the incubator warms up and approaches its control setting the ‘heater on’ asterisk “*” will change from continuously on to flashing.
Allow the incubator to stabilise for at least an hour before adjusting the temperature.

Developing embryos are fairly tolerant of short term temperature drops and the user need not be concerned about cooling
that occurs when inspecting eggs. Temperatures above ideal can quickly have a serious detrimental effect on hatch rates and
must be avoided.
The Ovation EX has a built-in temperature alarm which warns of high or low temperatures. See section 4 for details.
