3. Push the red test switch by a ballpoint pen etc.

Maintaining the water bath
• Some types of circulating fluid condense and accelerate the accumulation of scale. If the water
bath is contaminated by fur or scale, dip out the water or drain it out from the drain cock, and wash
the bath clean.
• Use ion-exchanged water or distilled water, and clean the water bath as appropriate. If ground
water or tap water is used, fur or scale accumulates inside the bath and not only contaminates it
but also deteriorates heater efficiency and service life. Clean it as appropriate.
Exercise extreme care not to get injured. It is very dangerous for you to perform
operations with bare hands. Wear gloves.
