Sterilization System Routine Maintenance Guide
•
Do not clean the chamber door area with abrasives. The sterilization
chamber uses an O-ring vacuum seal to maintain a vacuum in the
chamber. Never use rough cleaning tools, such as a wire brush or
steel wool, on the door housing or chamber assembly. This could
damage the seal.
