• Recommended maximum filling level is 5 mm.
Note:
When switching the circulator on, the bath liquid may lie below the
required minimum level due to liquid pumped into the external
system.
ATTENTION: The volume of bath oils will increase due to thermal expansion
when the bath temperature rises.
Exercise CAUTION when emptying hot bath liquids!
