hour minimum.
7.
Check and verify that the ambient temperature range is
41°F - 104°F (5
º
C-40
º
C), it is preferable not to exceed

Connections to Utility Supplies
1.
Check and verify that the power supply is a 1 phase,
230Vac
±
5%, 50/60Hz (as appropriate), 15A supply.
2.
Check and verify grounding of the autoclave.
3.
Check and verify that the electrical net is protected with a

Final adjustments
Once the autoclave is installed, the following operations have to
be performed before operating any cycle:
1.
Setting clock and date (See instruction in the user manual
sec. 7.3).
2.
Adjust parameter
ATMPressure
according to the altitude
of the autoclave
(See
instruction
for
adjusting
parameters
ATMPressure
sec.7.2.6 in the Technicians Manual)

Operating the autoclave
1
Plug the power cord into the power socket.
2
Turn on the Main Switch / Circuit Breaker (see front view).
3
Select "Vacuum Test" cycle to keep the steam generator and
heating elements from heating up. See Selecting a program
sec 10.6.
4
Open the door of the autoclave and remove the trays and the
packaging material.
5
Fill the Mineral Free Water Reservoir with water meeting
the quality specs in section 4.10 as follows:
5.1
Fill
with
4
liters
of
mineral
free
water
by
pouring
it
into
the front reservoir fill opening at the top of the
machine (see front view).”.
5.2
Fill the remaining quantity by pouring water gently,
into the front funnel until it reaches the required level
on the water level sight gauge (See Front View).
6
Insert a paper roll in the printer (see printer handling sec.
8.2).
7
Close the door and perform a Vacuum Test. If the test fails
perform another test since the fail may be a result of
moisture
in
the
air.
If
the
second
test
fails
it
may
be
necessary
to run Program 2 with the long drying
cycle to remove any
excess moisture that is causing the test to fail.
