Caution
When taking the sterile samples from the chamber...
Sufficiently remove the vapor inside the chamber before taking the sterile samples from the
chamber. Wear heat-resistant leather gloves to take them from the chamber to protect your
hands from high-temperature samples.
Do not touch the heat releasing outlet
Do not directly touch the heat releasing outlet located around the outer covering. The vapor may
blow out from the safety valve by an amlident during sterilizing operation. Do not block the outlet.
During a thunder storm
During a thunderstorm, turn off
the power key immediately, then turn off the circuit breaker and the
main power. If this procedure is not followed, fire or electrical shock may be caused.
When power failure occurs...
The lock lever on the cover goes into locked state for safety reasons when the power is turned off
due to a power failure. The state is automatically cancelled when the power is turned on and the
pressure inside the equipment decreases.
Do not operate the equipment without supplying sufficient amount of water
Do not operate the equipment without supplying sufficient amount of water. The heater is exposed
to the open-air if the amount of water supplied is insufficient, which causes a deterioration or
breakage of equipment. Make sure before operation that the appropriate amount of water is
supplied inside the chamber. (Refer to 8
of “Preparation before operation” in Page 11 for details.)
Do not open the panel on the outer covering
Touching the interior portion of equipment may cause an electric shock, burn injury, fire disaster or
equipment failure.
Do not touch the power plug with a wet hand
An electric shock may result in.
Do not place your hand over the top board
