MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Prior to any maintenance or service on this unit, disconnect service cord
from the power supply.
6.1
Cleaning:
Clean interior of the incubator on a regular basis. Remove
shelves and shelf clips and sterilize the incubator with a disinfectant that is
appropriate for your application. The shelves and clips are autoclavable,
or can be cleaned with the same solution as the incubator. DO NOT USE
spray cleaners that might leak through openings and cracks and get on
electrical components, or that may contain solvents that will harm coatings.
DO NOT USE chlorine-based bleaches or abrasives, as they will damage
the stainless steel interior. Regular periodic cleaning is required. Special
care should be taken when cleaning around sensing heads to prevent
damage.
WARNING:
Never clean the unit with alcohol or flammable cleaners with
the unit connected to the electrical supply. Always disconnect the unit from
the electrical service when cleaning and assure all volatile or flammable
cleaners are evaporated and dry before reattaching the unit to the power
supply.
6.2
When washing interior, handle the door gasket carefully so as not to
impair the positive seal.
6.3
NO maintenance is required on the electrical components. If the incubator
does not operate as specified, please see the Troubleshooting guide
before calling for service.
