Interlock Feature (Double-Door Units)
If unit is equipped with double doors,
a door interlock feature pre-
vents cross-contamination by allowing only one door to be opened at
a time. Doors can be opened only
one at a time.
If opening of both doors at the same time is more practical for facility
applications, it is possible to bypass the interlock system in Service
mode by a STERIS or STERIS-trained service technician. When inter-
lock feature is deactivated, pressing DOOR CLOSE or DOOR OPEN
touch pads on either side of washer automatically opens or closes
both doors simultaneously.
