NOTE: Reference indicators are located inside the rear
groove of door seal, at the middle of each side (refer to
Figure 10-1 for 660 x 660 mm [26 x 26”] sterilizers, or
Figure 10-2 for 660 x 950 mm [26 x 37.5”] sterilizers).
b. Press seal in at each reference point with fingertips.
c. Press seal in at each corner with fingertips.

7. Test installation.
a. Attempt to close the door. If the door sticks or will not fully
close at any point in its travel, check to make sure the seal
has been fully pressed into the groove.
b. Run a shortened test cycle to determine if the door seals
adequately. If steam leaks from around the door or the seal,
abort the cycle and examine the seal to ensure it has been
properly seated in the end frame groove. Once re-seated,
run another test cycle. If the door fails to seal following the
second test, another problem may exist. Contact your
supervisor before using the sterilizer further.
At the end of the cycle, ensure seal has retracted fully into
the groove.
