7.5. AUTOMATIC INSTRUMENT FLUSHING CYCLE
Description of the system.
This system allows carrying out an automatic FLUSHING cycle to renew
water present in the water ducts of the instruments on the dentist’s and
the assistant’s boards and the water-to-cup duct.
The flushing cycle can be carried out with mains water, with W.H.E.
system (if installed) or with S.H.S. system (if installed).
Available cycles are two:
- QUICK FLUSHING (cycle time: 20 seconds).
- LONG FLUSHING (cycle time can be set from 2 to 10 minutes).
It is advisable to carry out a LONG FLUSHING cycle at the
beginning of each working day and a QUICK FLUSHING
cycle between two patients.

• If the S.H.S. system is installed and you wish to carry out the flushing
cycle with distilled water, make sure that the relevant icon on the console
DISPLAY is on (see paragraph 7.2.).
It is advisable to execute the flushing cycle with tank
