The table below provides information about the equipment heating time, sterilization temperature, pressure and
time as well as drying time of each cycle and maximum drying temperature.
Note:
Heating time values are expressed considering the technical data chart (Table 6, page 18) regarding the autoclave
proper
working temperature range.

ALTITUDE CALIBRATION
In order for the autoclave to work properly, it is necessary to perform the altitude calibration procedure. Calibrate the
altitude of the autoclave as shown below, for this procedure the autoclave must be empty.

Unplug the autoclave;
Open the door of the autoclave, use the measuring cup to add the correct amount of
distilled water
directly into
the chamber
before
each cycle (150 ml for Vitale Plus 12 or 250 ml for Vitale Plus 21);
Press and hold the
START
key and plug the autoclave in;
Release the
START
key, the display will show the message "
Calibration
";
Close the door;
During the heating stage, the display will show the chamber temperature while the altitude is being measured, the
calibration will finish automatically, the autoclave will sound 2 beeps and the display will show "
END OF CALIBRATION
",
that means the calibration procedure was successfully performed;
Open the door, unplug the equipment and allow it to cool down;
The autoclave is ready to be used.
Note: In case the autoclave is taken to another workplace where the altitude is different, a new calibration
procedure must be performed.
