the internal autoclave’s surfaces. The inappropriate use may cause burns. GNATUS may not be hold
responsible for accidents caused by inadequate operation.

- Always make sure that the depressurization is complete: the manometer’s needle must be in the
“0” (zero) position. Never use force to open the autoclave!
- If one of the safety devices were activated (unexpected steam leak) usually caused by the
internal steam outlet blockage or by an obstruction in the pressure control valve, wait until the complete
depressurization before switching the autoclave off.

If the voltage were changed, these fuses may be changed.
