1. With the POWER switch OFF, plug the supply power cord into an appropriate, grounded, receptacle. (Refer to the cabinet data plate for voltage and ampere rating). 2. Ensure that the cabinet’s floor duct and water pan are installed. (refer to the cabinet operating instructions). This helps to distribute the heat evenly throughout the cabinet. 3. If extra humidity is desired, fill the water pan in the floor duct of the cabinet with clean warm water. The capacity of the pan is about one quart (one liter). 4. Set the POWER switch to the ON position. The red power light next to the switch will glow when the power is switched ON and will continue to glow until switched OFF. 5. Set the TEMPERATURE control to 6 or 7. This should provide a temperature of 150° to 170°F (66° to 77°C) after allowing the cabinet to preheat for 45 to 60 minutes. 6. The red indicator light between the thermostat and thermometer will turn on and off as the thermostat and heat elements cycle. 7. To change temperature set point, turn the TEMPERATURE control knob. About 30 minutes after a knob is turned, the thermometer should accurately display the change in cabinet temperature. 8. To clean cabinet, turn power off, unplug from wall outlet, allow the cabinet to cool, remove the floor duct and pan, wipe the cabinet with a damp cloth and dry with a towel. 9. Consult the instructions for use for additional operation and maintenance information.

PRODUCT FEATURES Control Panel Tray Slides Field Reversible Doors Be careful when opening the doors as hot, humid air will escape Air Duct from cabinet. Flush Water Pan Pull Fill with water. Handles Capacity is (1) quart (1 liter). Floor Duct Holds water pan and evenly distributes air flow.
Your C5 6 Series cabinet is capable of creating some humid air. As you operate the cabinet and open and close the door(s), condensation may form on the inside surfaces of the cabinet. Some dripping of water may occur to the outside of the cabinet particularly at the door seals.
If humidity is required, fill the water pan in the bottom of the cabinet. Potable (suitable for drinking) water should be used. Water Pan Fill with water. Capacity is about 1 quart (1 liter). To remove the water from the water pan, allow the cabinet and water to cool and remove the water pan. Note: When turning the cabinet off at the end of the work day, it is recommended to leave the door(s) open to prevent heat and condensation build up within the cabinet.
