6.1
Cleaning
1.
Routinely clean the exterior of the incubator by wiping it over with a soft cloth,
moistened with soapy water.
2.
Rinse the soap from the cloth in clean water, and wipe the exterior surfaces
again.
6.2
Disinfecting
The recommended disinfecting agent for use with the incubator is a solution of 70%
isopropanol (iso-propyl alcohol) and 30% distilled water. Be sure to follow
appropriate safety regulations while you are using this solution:
WARNING!
As a routine precaution, wear protective gloves.
Be sure to adequately ventilate the work area as you are disinfecting,
to avoid the formation of potentially explosive alcohol vapours.
Protect all electrical connections from contact with the alcohol
solution.
To best protect yourself, your incubator and your work area, follow these
instructions:
1.
Program 0.0% CO
2
and switch off the incubator. Unplug the unit from the power
supply.
2.
Dampen a clean cloth with the alcohol solution and wipe down all external
surfaces, taking care to keep the alcohol solution from coming into contact with
any electrical outlets or assemblies.
3.
Remove all of the shelves, the humidity tray, and the shelf racks.
4.
Place the black protective cover over the CO
2
sensor.
CAUTION!
It is very important to ensure that no liquid is spilled onto the white
porous CO
2
sensor cover at the rear of the chamber. Failure to use the
protective cover could result in damage to the sensor and may affect
your warranty.
5.
You can clean the humidity tray by rinsing it in sterile water, wiping it down with
the alcohol solution, and then rinsing it with sterile water.
