Once the set value is reached and remains stable for one minute, the
program ends with the indication "Precool OK".
• Press the precool key to terminate the precooling program prematurely.
In this case, the indication "Precool off" flashes on the display.
If the precooling program is selected and then deselected without actually
being started, the set temperature will be reset to the old value. If, however,
the precooling run is started, the limited set temperature will also be used
for the following runs, but it will not be saved in the program.

Softstart and softstop function
The softstart function is used to extend the acceleration time, whereas the
softstop function is used to extend the deceleration time. The current
combination is shown on the display.
• To activate the softstart and softstop functions, press the set key
repeatedly until "Soft-stop/start" flashes in the upper left part of the
display.
• Press the arrow keys until "Soft-stop/start on" is displayed. The softstart
and softstop functions are now activated.
• Press the arrow key until "Soft stop on" is displayed. Only the softstop
function will be active and the centrifuge will start at normal speed.
• Press the arrow key until "Soft off" is displayed. The softstart and
softstop functions are now deactivated.
The data will be accepted immediately and saved after approx. 20 seconds.
You can also change the settings as described above during a
