5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Temperature and Humidity Control
The incubator features a precise digital display for monitoring and adjusting temperature and humidity. Refer to the specific requirements for the type of eggs you are incubating.
- Use the control panel buttons to set the desired temperature.
- Monitor humidity levels via the display and replenish water in the external reservoirs as needed to maintain optimal conditions.

5.2. Egg Placement and Automatic Turning
Carefully place the fertilized eggs into the rolling tray. The incubator's integrated motor will automatically turn the eggs at regular intervals to ensure even heat distribution and prevent the embryo from sticking to the shell.
- The customizable rolling tray accommodates various egg sizes (chicken, duck, goose, quail).
- The automatic turning function is pre-set for optimal embryonic development.

7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Incubator not turning on | No power supply; damaged cable | Check power connection; inspect cable for damage. |
| Temperature fluctuations | Room temperature unstable; lid not sealed properly | Move incubator to a stable environment; ensure lid is closed securely. |
| Humidity too low | Insufficient water in reservoirs | Refill water reservoirs; check for blockages in humidity system. |
| Eggs not turning | Turning mechanism jammed; motor issue | Check for obstructions; contact customer support if motor is faulty. |
