Child Entrapment Warning

Start-Up Procedure

Rotate the control knob clockwise to lower the temperature 
and counterclockwise raise it. 
To check chamber temperature, place a dial thermometer on 
a shelf in the center of the chamber. Initially, rotate the 
temperature control knob to an arbitrary setting. Allow 
approximately 2 hours for the temperature to initially stabilize. 
Check the temperature and compare with the dial setting.
Adjust dial further to reach the desired operating temperature. 
After chamber initially stabilizes, allow 1/2 hour to 1 hour for 
the chamber temperature to stabilize after subsequent 
temperature adjustments. 

Because the markings on the dial do not indicate specific 
temperatures, use them AS REFERENCE POINTS ONLY for 
any future setting of the temperature.
If the room thermostat is turned below 60ºF at night, consider 
setting the temperature control one step colder. It should be 
left at this setting for the nighttime period; return temperature 
control to original setting when the room thermostat is 
returned to its normal setting.

Restart Procedure

If unit is unplugged or turned off, allow 3 minutes before 
restarting or plugging it back in.

efficiency of the unit will be affected. Use the following
