5. Настройка і ўстаноўка

Follow these steps to properly install your Pymeter Reptile Heating Pad:

  1. Падрыхтуйце паверхню: Ensure the terrarium surface where the heat pad will be applied is clean, dry, and free of dust or debris.
  2. Наляпіце клейкую стужку: Use the provided nano traceless strong adhesive tape to secure the heat pad to the desired location on the terrarium. The pad can be mounted on the sides or bottom of the tank. This adhesive allows for removal and reuse without leaving residue.
  3. Position the Heat Pad: Place the heat pad on the exterior surface of the terrarium. For optimal heat distribution, ensure it is positioned where your reptile will benefit most from the warmth.
  4. Install the Temperature Probe: Fix the temperature probe securely at the hot spot within the terrarium where you need to monitor or maintain the temperature. This is crucial for accurate temperature regulation. Avoid placing the probe directly on the heat pad's surface inside the tank, as this may lead to inaccurate readings.
  5. Падключыце харчаванне: Plug the heat pad's power cord into a standard 120V power outlet.
