Do not fit the plastic cover if the bath is filled with heated water. The heated water will cause
condensation on the plastic cover, which can in-turn damage the electrical circuits of the water bath and
potentially create a hazardous situation.
The cover should only be fitted to either a dry empty water bath, or a bath filled with ambient
temperature water (for a maximum of 48 hours when filled with water).

Routine Cleaning And Maintenance
To maintain the water bath in good, safe working order and ensure maximum product lifespan, regular cleaning and
general maintenance is required. The water bath should be cleaned at least once every month for a unit being used on a
daily basis, for infrequently used water baths a cleaning frequency of once every 3 months is recommended. On each
occasion, the general maintenance routine should be employed following cleaning with the exception of the over-
temperature safety cutout test which need only be conducted every 2 years of normal operation.
