Caution:
The first time the appliance is operated, it must not be left unattended until it has reached
the steady state.
4.1 Connecting the appliance
Caution:
Observe the country-specific regulations when mak-
ing connections (e.g. in Germany DIN VDE 0100 with
residual current circuit breaker). Observe the connec-
tion and power ratings (see nameplate and Technical
data on page 14).
Make sure to establish a safe PE
conductor connection.
Plug the provided power cable into the rear of the appli-
ance and connect it to the power supply ( Fig. 11 ).
Lay the power cable so that
► it is always accessible and within reach so it can be disconnected quickly in the event of
failure or emergencies;
► no one can trip over it
► it does not come into contact with any hot parts.
4.2 Fill up and connect the water tank
(for constant climate chambers HPP only)
Water specifications
For steam creation, use only: demineralised/desalinated water (Aqua Dem) with a conduc-
tivity ≤ 10 μS/cm. Otherwise, possible calcification in the steam generators, steam piping
and steam generator pumps could affect the correct functioning of the appliance. Only use
chlorine-free water with a pH value of > 5 and < 7.
