NOTES:
1. Automatic mode: Some species are preprogrammed
which allows the user to simply select the species and
leave the incubator to select the correct settings.
The incubator display will indicate the number of days
remaining until hatch and will cease turning eggs automatically
2 days before hatching is due.
