START-UP OF UNIT

1.
Connect the power cord to the dedicated outlet with appropriate rating.
2.
On start-up, the alarm buzzer sometimes operates. In this case, stop the buzzer by pressing the
buzzer stop key (BUZZER). The alarm will operate until the temperature monitor bottle sensor goes into
the range of 4
o
C
±
2
o
C.
3.
Ensure that both monitor bottles have been filled with 10% glycerol or water as outlined on page 13.
4.
The unit has been factory preset to operate at 4
o
C
±
1
o
C. There is no need to set the temperature.
5.
It takes several hours to stabilize the chamber temperature at the set temperature. Once the unit has
stabilized, ensure the monitor bottle temperature corresponds with the set temperature.
6.
Turn on the fluorescent light switch to check the light. After checking, turn off the switch if the lighting
is not necessary.
7.
Once the unit operation has been thoroughly checked, begin slowly placing items into the chamber to
minimize the temperature rise.
Operation after power failure
The refrigerator resumes the operation with temperature setting of 4
