In case that sight glass and water cap weren’t closed completely, temperature and humidity aren’t normally
operated. Therefore, please be careful.
Incubation room? It means the place where the incubator is installed and operated, and as it has much effect on
incubation rate according to the environment of incubation room, it is good to install incubator at the place where
there is little noise and vibration in the vicinity and the temperature range isn’t severe in the temperature of 22~25℃
(71.6~77℉). In particular, as there are many cases that the temperature falls rapidly in the nighttime differently
from the daytime, it is necessary to check certainly, and during daytime, incubator must not be exposed directly to
the sunlight.
Before inserting eggs, please start incubation after checking if all functions work without any problem by
operating incubator sufficiently.
In case of moving with water filled, as it may cause a breakdown, fill water after installing it at the place
where you want to incubate.
Please be careful not to give any heavy power or shockon the heater part for humidification in the upper side
of main body as it may be a cause of breakdown. Some foreign substance is created on the heater part
after use, however, there isn’t any problem caused of it. (See cleaning method)

▶After all eggs are hatched, you should REMOVE the power cord for incubation termination.
(The incubator has no separate power switch.)
▶In case of neglecting it after turning off incubator during incubating at high humidity, the water leaving in the
inside evaporates and may create water drops on the FND window and control equipment. In order to prevent
this, separate the up and down of main body to dry it. (it may be possible to operate incubator for 1~2 hours
and dry its inside after removing the water for humidification of incubator inside.)
▶Connect power cord of incubator to start incubation into
the temperature and humidity set in the past.
[In case of initial shipment, temperature 35.0℃(95℉),
humidity RH 60%]
▶Set proper temperature and humidity of species to be
incubated to start incubation. It is necessary to pass some
period to be stabilized into set temperature and humidity.
There can be some odor the first time you use incubator,
which is normal.
Power Failure Notification : When firstly input power, or power
failure during incubation, second dot " . " of temp. display is

▶Pull out the electric cord from the connecting jack and
also take out the plug from the outlet.
In case of turning off the power immediately after using
incubator, it may be a cause of breakdown because of
the humidity remaining in the inside of main controller.
Then, it is necessary to turn it off after operating about
for 1 hour at the state of removing water for humidifi
cation of the incubator inside or reoperate it after
opening sight glass and naturally drying for 2~3 hours
in order to use machine for a long time.
Disassembling and Cleaning the Incubator
Unlock and remove the locking buttons for
four parts at the front and back of incubator
by pulling them forward.
▶When using humidification function, a lot of alien matter
sticks to the humidification heating element ⓐ. This may
not cause failure, but when terminating incubation please
clean the humidifying heater lightly with a soft brush.
▶If you place the main body(upper part) on the floor, please
don't let the humidification heating part touch with the floor.
Dry main body(bottom) and tray after washing
with water cleanly and dry main body(up) about
for one day at airy area in order to remove
remaining humidity in the inside completely.
In case of giving some shock on the heater part ⓐfor
humidification or drawing it with a sharp thing, the heater
for humidification is damaged.
In order to reduce foreign substance(scale) of the heater
part ⓐfor humidification, it is recommendable to use
distilled water as water for humidification. In case of
wanting to use other water, be sure to use it after
inquiring to the store purchased.
In case of using distilled water as water for humidification,
it is possible to reduce foreign substance(scale) noticeably.
