clean the pan with a neutral dishwashing detergent.
Then rinse it thoroughly with distilled water and wipe
it with sterilizing alcohol.

5. Return the pan to the chamber and add sterile
distilled water (approx. 1.5 L, preheated to 37

6. Set the pan with the inner side flush against the
back, and replace the cover. Close all gastight split
doors, inner door and outer door, and confirm that
RH PAN is not displayed in reverse video in the
status display area.

displayed, use the above procedure to replenish the
water.

always wipe off any dirt from the water level
