The validity of the declaration of conformity to the laws in force will become void
unless the maintenance operations described below are carried out.
10.1 General maintenance
The machine needs to be serviced in a particular way. Users are therefore advised to comply with the
below listed recommendations:
Periodically check the condition of the electrical system with particular attention to the connection
cable.
Contact our Technical Assistance Service or specialized personnel if faults are
discovered.
Periodically clean the door, the seal and take particular care when cleaning the
internal part of the
boiler
, removing any scaling with the damp sponge (supplied with the machine). Correct cleaning
of these parts of the machine will ensure that the sterilizing cycle takes place in the right way.
If the machine is not to be used for a long period of time, leave the door ajar and store it at a room
temperature of >8°C.
Use a damp cloth to clean the casing of the machine. Never ever use inflammable liquids for any
reason whatsoever.
The bacteriological filter must be changed at least once a year. New ones can be ordered with code
1067.
10.2 Daily routine maintenance
Clear the door seal, door window and generally clean the outer and inner surfaces of the machine.
Clean the black silicone door seal, the outer and inner edges and the part where the door rests on the
sterilizing chamber and on which the seal must tightly fit. Use the supplied sponge to do this. The soft
part of the sponge can be used to clean the seal while the rough part can be used to clean the edge of the
chamber.
This cleaning operation must be carried out regularly to remove all impurities that could lead to loss of
pressure inside the sterilizing chamber.
Check the used water level and drain off (14) the actual water into the sewer if necessary. Then wash out
the can under running water.
10.3 Weekly routine maintenance
Cleaning the sterilizing chamber (cleaning the trays and tray holders.
As specified in section 10.1 “ General maintenance “, all traces of deposits must be removed from the
bottom of the chamber. Use the rough side of the supplied sponge for this operation, attempting to
eliminate any scaling that may have formed.
Rinse everything with the same water used for the sterilizing process. The trays and tray-holders must
also be cleaned in this way.
