After installation as described in Chapter 4, the Leica EG1150 C is ready for
operation. Switch on the device with the On-Off switch at the front left of
the instrument ("I" = ON). A lamp lights up in the switch to indicate that the
unit is operational and the refrigeration unit will start working.
Depending on the room temperature, the working temperature of the cool-
ing surface (-5 °C) will be reached in around 25 minutes (see also Ch. 4.1).
