4. Using your HYDR
IM
4.7 Interrupting / aborting a cycle
The door of the HYDR
IM
is locked during the cycle. If the STOP
button is pressed, the cycle is aborted and cannot be re-started.
The message “Draining. Please wait” will appear. The unit will drain.
Then the message “Instruments not processed” will appear. Press
OK. Open the door by pressing . Use gloves if handling the
instruments. Exercise caution as instruments, trolley, baskets and
cassettes may be hot. The cycle must be repeated to ensure that
instruments are properly processed.
NOTE:
If the drying phase of the cycle is interrupted, the critical parts of the cycle are
complete and the message displaying the program name and “Cycle Complete. Drying
interrupted” will appear.
4.8 Additional user and setup menu functions
To access the user or setup menus, follow these steps:
Chamber cleaning
This cycle is used to periodically remove hardwater deposits from
the chamber walls and racks. Pour 0.5 litres of vinegar or citric acid-
into the chamber before starting the cycle. The HYDR
IM
will remind
you to run a cleaning cycle every 25 cycles. The reminder frequency
can be adjusted by the technician. Touch “cleaning.” A cleaning
cycle, similar to a normal wash cycle, will run. Failure to clean the
chamber can promote corrosion.
