The red diode “Stand by“ lights up. That is: there is a voltage being applied. Switch on the heater
element using the large pushbutton (lights up green) and select the desired temperature (160°C
to 285°C) using the “+“ or “-“ button.
Heating up of the heater element is displayed by a yellow diode on the heater element. A hori-
zontal bar also appears on the temperature indicator. The yellow diode goes out shortly before
reaching the set temperature (tol/-3°C) and the green one lights up. After a further 10
minutes the heating element is ready to use. Check the temperature using a temperature meas-
uring instrument.
Setting the off-set:
press the “+“ and “-“ button at the same time. The heater element can subse-
quently be calibrated using one of these buttons and an external temperature measuring instru-
ment.
