When the form of the article to be sterilized prevents air from
escaping, the efficiency of sterilization may be reduced by the
residual air. It is, therefore, recommended that the following
actions should be taken before performing sterilization:
•When using a sterilizing bag, fill it with approximately 100mL of
water and leave it open as widely as possible.
•When using a container, fill it with a small amount of water
(approximately 10 to 50mL).
•Make sure that the load does not exceed 50% of the chamber
capacity.

If the container with poor penetration is sterilized, it may be deformed or the efficiency
of sterilization may be decreased. It is, therefore, recommended that the following actions
should be taken before performing sterilization:
•Remove or loosen the lid of container before sterilization.
•Replace the cap with a highly breathable or porous one.
○
When plastic articles are sterilized, they may be deformed. It is, therefore, recommended that

Place articles to be sterilized in the stainless steel basket provided or in an optional stainless
steel bucket.
※ Stainless steel buckets and baskets are available as optional containers.
※
Make sure that the articles to be sterilized will not touch the chamber lid gasket or the temperature
sensor when they are placed in the chamber. Otherwise, it may cause damage.
Place articles to be sterilized carefully in the chamber.
※
When loading the container with articles to be sterilized, make sure that the articles to be sterilized
never exceeds the load line or the upper surface of the container. Otherwise, the articles to be
sterilized may be damaged or broken when the chamber lid is closed.
Close the chamber lid.
Check the lid open indicator turns off.
