5. Setup

5.1 Unpacking and Placement

1. Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Place the incubator on a stable, level surface, away from direct sunlight, drafts, or extreme temperature fluctuations.
3. Ensure there is adequate space around the incubator for ventilation.

5.2 Connecting Water Bottles

1. Fill the three provided water bottles with distilled or demineralized water.
2. Screw the caps tightly onto the bottles.
3. Insert the water bottles into the designated ports on the side of the incubator. Ensure they are securely seated to prevent leaks and maintain humidity.

5.3 Power Connection

1. Standard AC Power: Connect the AC power cable to the incubator's power input and then plug it into a standard grounded electrical outlet.
2. Emergency Battery Power: In case of a power outage, connect the battery connection cable to the incubator's power input and the other end to a 12V car battery (not included). This provides backup power.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Pre-Incubation Checks

1. Power on the incubator and allow it to run for at least 2-3 hours to stabilize the internal temperature and humidity.
2. Familiarize yourself with the control panel and display.
3. Ensure water bottles are filled and properly connected.

6.2 Setting Temperature and Humidity

Refer to the specific requirements for the type of eggs you are incubating. Typical settings are:

• Chicken Eggs: Temperature 37.5°C (99.5°F), Humidity 50-60% (days 1-18), 65-75% (days 19-21).
• Use the control buttons on the display panel to adjust the desired temperature and humidity levels. The incubator will automatically maintain these settings.

6.3 Placing Eggs

1. Carefully place the fertilized eggs into the egg rollers. Ensure they are seated correctly.
2. Close the incubator lid securely.
3. The automatic egg turning system will begin rotating the eggs periodically.

6.4 Monitoring and Candling

• Regularly check the display for temperature and humidity readings.
• Refill water bottles as needed to maintain humidity.
• Use the integrated candler to periodically check embryo development. This is typically done around day 7 and day 14 for chicken eggs.

6.5 Hatching Phase

1. Approximately 3 days before the expected hatch date (e.g., day 18 for chicken eggs), remove the egg rollers.
2. Place the provided incubation grid at the bottom of the incubator.
3. Carefully place the eggs onto the grid.
4. Increase humidity to the recommended level for hatching (e.g., 65-75% for chicken eggs).
5. Do not open the incubator during hatching unless absolutely necessary, as this can cause a drop in humidity and temperature, harming the chicks.

7. Maintenance

7.1 Cleaning

1. After each hatch, unplug the incubator and allow it to cool down.
2. Remove all egg debris and clean the interior surfaces with a mild disinfectant solution.
3. Wipe down the egg rollers and incubation grid.
4. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembling or storing.

7.2 Storage

Store the incubator in a clean, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, when not in use.

8. Troubleshooting

• Temperature Fluctuations: Ensure the incubator lid is securely closed. Check room temperature stability. Avoid placing near windows or vents.
• Low Humidity: Verify water bottles are filled and properly connected. Add more water if necessary. Ensure the incubator is not in a very dry environment.
• Eggs Not Turning: Check if the automatic turning function is enabled. Ensure eggs are correctly seated in the rollers. If the issue persists, contact support.
• No Power: Check the power cable connection and the electrical outlet. If using battery power, ensure the battery is charged and connected correctly.
