(1)  Direction buttons for navigation in the menu structure (left / right / top / bottom)
(2)  OK button for confirmation of a selection in the menu
(3)  Heating plate movement up / down
(4)  Filament infeed + = forward / - = back
(5)  Printing pause
1x push: Print stops
2x pushes: Printing head moves away from printed object (the previous position remains saved)
(6)  Continuation of print after a printing pause
e) Calibration
 Before calibration, filament must be inserted (see “Insertion of the Filament”), since the measured values are falsified
otherwise. The filament must not be introduced into the extruder in this case, however. It only needs to be clamped
between the ball bearing and infeed knurl. If there is already some filament in the extruder, move it out with the manual
filament infeed first. Caution: If the extruder has already been used, it must be heated first.
Calibration should be performed now and then. It is a prerequisite for high printing quality. Perform the calibration after
a transport of the 3D printer or any changes to the heating plate in any case.
This calibration does not replace the correct basic setting of the limit switch for the Z-direction. It serves to balance
out slight irregularities of the heating plate while printing.
 Ensure that the heating plate is supported levelly on the spacer bolts.
Ensure that the extruder nozzle is clean on the outside. If it is contaminated, clean it as described in chapter “Mainte-
nance and Care”.
The figures on the display screens may vary a little depending on firmware version.
