OPERATION
POWER On/Off: Use the On/Off button to turn power on or off.

different temperature than the area where it is to be operated. Allow one hour
for each 5° F or 3° C temperature change before using the unit.
After temperature stabilization, allow 20 minutes for top-loading models, and at
least 2 hours for analytical models with draft shields, for the electronics to stabilize.
