6.15 Aborting Cycles It may be necessary to end a processing cycle, possibly because
the wrong cycle was selected or the sterilizer begins functioning
incorrectly. A cycle can be aborted at any time by pressing the Abort
touch-screen button.
1. Touch the Abort button.
a. A prompt screen appears asking for confirmation of cycle
abort.
• Press No to cancel abort and return to cycle, or
• Press Yes, to advance display to Cycle Aborted screen.
If there is pressure in the chamber, control initiates abort
sequence.
b. The sterilizer exhausts chamber of steam.
2. Once chamber reaches 4 psig (0.28 Pbar), the sterilizer removes
vapor from the chamber for one minute.
WARNING – STERILITY
ASSURANCE HAZARD: In the
event of an incomplete cycle,
the sterilizer will automatically
advance to the exhaust phase
of the cycle and then
complete the cycle. The load
must then be reprocessed to
verify proper sterilization.
WARNING – BURN HAZARD:
• Sterilizer, rack/shelves and
loading equipment will be hot
after cycle is run. Always wear
protective gloves and apron
when removing a processed
load. Protective gloves and
apron must be worn when
reloading sterilizer following
the previous operation.
• Steam may be released from
the chamber when door is
opened. Step back from the
sterilizer each time the door is
opened to minimize contact
with steam vapor.
