Cleaning and Maintenance
6.1.2 Running cleaning programs
Fig. 216
The cleaning program skips any steps not required to complete the cleaning of the retort.
Which steps are carried out depends on which reagent was last in the retort.
If a cleaning is not necessary, the system informs the user in a
message window (
Fig. 216
).
If the last reagent in the retort was either paraffin, ParaLast™
or Intermedium, the user is advised upon exiting the
SMART
SCREEN
that a retort cleaning cycle should be carried out
(
Fig. 215
). Confirm this with
OK
.

• The
RETORT CLEANING
window will appear and you can
select the desired cleaning program there.
You can select the following retort cleaning programs (
Fig. 217
):
• Quick cleaning
• Regular cleaning
• Extended cleaning program by detergent (water step is
defined in the program)
Pressing the
CANCEL KEY
does not start cleaning - you are
taken to the previous screen (however, this is
NOT
possible if an
infiltration program was running prior to this!).

To call up a cleaning program, press
the
START CLEANING PROGRAM
button.
After a paraffin run, clean the cassette baskets using the standard cleaning program. Only clean cas-
sette baskets may be used for a program run. After 6 cleaning cycles, both cleaning xylene and cleaning
alcohol must be replaced.
Furthermore, neither molds or other objects
may be cleaned using any ASP6025 cleaning
program!
