Filling with water
The unit must not be heated without water. Minimum filling level: 4 cm. Even if objects are placed in,
the filling level is always below the upper end of the air supply fitting. Do not fill the unit under running water.
Prior to filling with water, check if the water discharge valve at the rear of the unit is closed.
Use only pure tap water for processing.
Distilled, deionized water or other liquids may not be used!

7.2.1 Overtemperature protection
- 8 -
The Palamat elite unit is equipped with two overtemperature protections which are activated if the temperature
is exceeded by 110°C (230°F).
In the event of activation of the fuses, the heating circuit is interrupted.
Please check your minimum filling level.
Note!
The overtemperature protections may only be reset by trained service personnel.
Contact your responsible service agent (see chapter 11 Service).

To switch on the unit, press the power switch (5) at the front of the unit. The power switch is lit and indicates that the unit has
been started up. The software version is shown in the Timer Display (15) for a short period.
7.3.1 Selecting the temperature stage
The yellow LED indicates the currently selected temperature program.
The select-key is used for selecting prior to the polymerization process.
The select-key is deactivated during the process.
Additionally, the blinking pattern of the LED indicates the current temperature status.
