3. Getting Started
Preparing Your STATCLAVE for Use
Once the STATCLAVE has been correctly installed, and before using it for the first time, make sure
BOTH the clean water and Venturi reservoirs contain distilled water. The STATCLAVE uses the Venturi
system to generate vacuum draws at the beginning and end of each cycle. Both reservoirs must
contain the minimum required water levels for the unit to function.
1.
Power on the unit.
2.
Follow the screen prompts to connect your
STATCLAVE using either WiFi or an Ethernet
cable connection. This will automatically set
the time and date for your unit.
3.
Open the CLEAN WATER RESERVOIR
located on the top right of the unit. Using
a large container, fill with distilled water to
the maximum fill level line or until you hear 3
BEEPs.
(For more fill options see Section 4. Filling the
Water Reservoirs.)
If you do not wish to connect your STATCLAVE at this time, Press and select a language. Then press and

date, country, and time zone. (See Section 8. Using and Changing Settings)
SciCan recommends connecting and registering your STATCLAVE. To do this at a later time, See Section 8.5
Registering for STATCLAVE Online Access.
IMPORTANT!
DON’T run the STATCLAVE without the chamber rack in place.
IMPORTANT!
Keep the door open when
powering the unit ON for the first time to
allow the unit to accurately read the local
atmospheric pressure. If the unit misreads
the pressure, it may lock the door.
