6 ) Heat up and stabilization period.
• The oven chamber must be stable at temperature in order to perform an accurate
calibration.
• The temperature is considered stabilized when the oven chamber has operated at your
calibration temperature for at least 30 minutes with no fluctuations of ±1°F or greater.

Suggested Calibration Procedure
Once the chamber has stabilized with no fluctuations, compare
the reference temperature device and chamber temperature
display readings.
a. If the readings are the same, or the difference between the
two falls within the acceptable range of your protocol, the
display is accurately showing the chamber temperature.
The Temperature Calibration procedure is now complete.
- Or -
b. See Step 2 if a difference falls outside the acceptable
range of your protocol.

The display requires calibration. Advance to Step 3.
• If the door was opened to check a reference
device temperature inside the chamber, wait
15 minutes after the reference device reading
stops fluctuating before proceeding.
