Drying assistance
The additional “Drying assistance” function accelerates the drying
process at the end of the programme.
If drying assistance has been activated the door will automatically
open a few centimetres at the end of the programme to release steam
from the cabinet. The load will then be dried using passive heat given
off by the residual heat in the cabinet.
This method of drying does not comply with the requirements of
EN ISO 15883-1/-2. For this reason, items must be dried separately
before further processing (sterilisation) or storage.
The drying function can be pre-selected for all programmes with a
drying phase or can be retrospectively switched on or off every time a
programme is selected (see “Settings
/ Drying”).
Drying is activated or deactivated prior to programme start by press-
ing the
button. The LED in the
button indicates whether the ad-
ditional function is on or off. The drying time of the programme can
also be changed.
When the drying function is activated, the programme runs approx.
2 minutes longer.
