In the unlikely event that you experience any problems with your unit which cannot easily be remedied,
you should contact your supplier and return the unit if necessary. Please include any details of the fault
observed and remember to return the unit in its original packing. Techne accept no responsibility for
damage to units which are not properly packed for shipping: if in doubt, contact your supplier. See the
Decontamination Certificate supplied with your unit.
1. Cleaning
Before cleaning your unit ALWAYS disconnect it from the power supply and allow it to cool below 50°
C.
Your unit can be cleaned by wiping with a damp soapy cloth. Care should be exercised to prevent water
from running inside the unit. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
2. Overtemperature cutout
In the event of no heater power, check the mains plug and lead. Repeated operation of the cutout
indicates a serious fault: you may need to return the unit to your supplier for repair.
3. Fuses
Your unit is protected by one or two fuses. These should only be changed by suitably qualified
personnel. If the fuses blow persistently, a serious fault is indicated and you may need to return the
unit to your supplier for repair.
