Using Air Temperature Control
Reducing air temperature inside the incubator
The cooling rate is determined by the incubator design and can
be increased by
– removing the double wall,
– reducing the outside temperature (if possible),
– reducing the humidity setpoint, and
– partially or completely removing incubator canopy if used.
NOTE: Cooling is not accelerated by reducing the required air
temperature below the value actually intended.
In case of an urgent need for cooling:
Open canopy, large access doors, side doors, or access ports.
If you do not wish to activate the new setpoint:
1 Press button to cancel adjustment of the new setpoint.
The screen returns to the standard display mode and the
former setpoint is retained.
Or
– Wait for 7 seconds: Caleo emits 4 short beeps to prompt the
user to press the rotary knob. The display will immediately
return to the standard screen. The previous setpoint will be
retained.
Alarms
Alarm limits can be changed in the configuration (see
page 108).

values exceeds 1.5
o
C*:
– On screen, a warning message appears:
»Air temp. deviation above 1.5
o
C«
– an intermittent audible alarm (3 beeps) sounds
2 The central alarm indicator lights up**.
WARNING !
Monitor infant constantly when canopy, doors, or access
ports are open, to ensure infant cannot fall out of the
