Clave 23+ Instruction Manual v1.4
5.1.4 Filling the distilled water tank
Open the cover and fill the tank with distilled water. When you hear the beep signal, it
means that the water level has reached the maximum level. The icon
will be
displayed. Please stop filling immediately.
The water level should not exceed this port.
5.2 Preparation of Sterilization Materials
For the most effective sterilization and to preserve the instrument and tools, please follow
the suggestions below:
* Arrange the instruments of different materials on different trays or with at least 3cm of
space between them.
* Always insert a sterilization paper or cloth between the tray and instrument to avoid
direct contact between the different materials.
* Arrange the containers (glasses, cups, test-tubes, etc) on one side or in an inverted
position to avoid water pooling.
* Don’t stack the trays one above the other or put them in direct contact with the walls of
the sterilization chamber.
* Always use the instrument tray handle.
* Wrap the instruments one by one or, if more tools have to be set in the same bag, verify
that these are made of the same material.
* Don’t use metallic clips, pins, or other similar things as this jeopardizes the
maintenance of the sterilizer.
* Don’t overload the trays over the stated limit (see Appendix 2).
