5. Maintenance con’t.
Remove the old seal and discard. Clean any residue out of the
seal channel and flush out the channel with distilled water.
Lubricate the new seal with the liquid seal lubricant provided.
Insert the rounded edge of the seal under the round lip of
the lid. Align the holes in the new seal with the holes in the lid.
NOTE: At every corner and at the holes in the lid, two square nibs
should be visible. The nibs should fit flush with the lid’s outer surface.
Ensure the seal is completely inserted. Feel around
the periphery to ensure the seal is securely in place.
NOTE: During a cycle, steam may appear between the lid
and the tray. If this persists, remove the cassette and check
that the seal is correctly installed.
Be careful. The metal parts will be hot, and the cassette may contain hot steam.
5.8 Maintaining Fluid Levels
Use only steam-process distilled water containing less than 5 ppm total dissolved solids
(having conductivity of less than 10 µS / cm) in the Statim. To fill the reservoir, remove the
cap from the top of the unit and fill the reservoir. We recommend using a funnel to minimize
spills. Each time you refill the reservoir, empty the waste bottle and refill with water to the
MIN line. Empty the waste bottle often to avoid unpleasant odors and discoloration of the
contents. (A low-level chlorine-free disinfectant, prepared according to the manufacturer’s
instructions, may be added to the waste bottle to remedy this situation).
5.9 Reading Water Quality
1. Power up unit while pressing the STOP button to access the User Setup menu.
2. Using the UNWRAPPED and WRAPPED buttons, scroll to Water Quality and select it by
pressing the RUBBER AND PLASTIC button.
