5.5 Launching the reprocessing cycle
Once the reprocessing cycle is selected and instruments setting achieved, press the “Start Key” (K1) to launch the
cycle (see Figure 23).
•
“Start Key” launches the selected cycle for the selected instruments. If a problem occurs or if you
wish to stop the cycle the “Start Key” stops the unit when pushed and held
•
The cycle is then interrupted, the settings and selections are recorded and the device is in standby
mode. Pressing “Start Key” again, allows the reprocessing cycle relaunch from the beginning with
the same settings
•
In case the door is open while the unit is in standby mode, the settings and selections are then reset
to default
When reprocessing cycle is launched, the status indicators on the control panel indicate the progress of the cycle
and the treatment chamber is illuminated using the same colour code.
•
Yellow indicator = Cleaning phase
•
White indicator = Disinfection phase
•
Blue indicator = Lubrication phase
•
Once the cycle is completed the green indicator is illuminated to inform the user that the instruments are ready
for further steps.

Caution
•
When the “oil drop” indicators are switched off, the related instruments are not selected
•
Before first use, or after a long period of no use, run the device without instruments
Caution
•
In order to facilitate external cleaning, you need to perform pre-cleaning as defined in section 5.1
•
Use disinfectant wipes to handle the instruments while connecting them to the unit
•
At the end of the cycle, open the door and remove the instrument using a disinfectant wipe
Lubrication phase
Lubrication is a maintenance
step.
Lubricants
reduce
noise, friction and prevent
wear and accumulation of
wear debris. This step uses a
high pressure air blowing oil
inside the instrument.
Disinfection phase
Disinfection is the reduction
of the number of viable
organisms of the instruments.
The devices operates using
chemical disinfecting agents
which are used to neutralize
the remaining agents.
Purge and Initialisation
High pressure air is used for
removal of elements which
soil the instrument and clog
the internal channels. For
example : oil residue, body
fluids, and metal particles.
Cleaning phase
Cleaning is the removal of
initial contamination. The
purpose of cleaning is to
leave as little residue as
possible, since this can
adversely affect disinfection
