885 Compact Oven SC

Warning

In the event of a possible jamming of a drive, the mains plug must be
pulled out of the socket immediately. Do not attempt to free jammed
sample vessels or other parts while the instrument is switched on. A
jamming can only be cleared when the instrument is in a voltage-free
status; this action generally involves a considerable risk of injury.
