CALIBRATION
During continuous operation, the following service tasks must be performed:
Perform a temperature calibration at least once a year.
For temperature calibration, contact our sales representative or agent.
REPLACEMENT OF BATTERY
Replace the battery for the power-failure alarm every 3 years (when the message “F-1” and chamber
temperature are displayed alternately) to ensure the alarm will operate in the event of power failure.
Contact our sales representative or agent to arrange replacement of the battery when the message “F-1”
and chamber temperature are displayed alternately.
The alarm function (blinking of alarm indicator, sounding of alarm buzzer) will not operate when the
battery for the power-failure alarm is flat.
The alarm indicator blinks and the alarm buzzer sounds as a result of power from the battery for the
power-failure alarm. The regular replacement of the battery for the power-failure alarm is important to
prevent an increase in chamber temperature in the event of unexpected circumstances.
<Important>
The used battery is a recyclable precious resource. Do not dispose of the battery. Always follow the
procedure for recycling.
