Recommended precautions: To protect the eyes use sealed protective goggles.
CAUTION
Eye contact.
Eye damage due to chemical burns.
∅ Do NOT empty into drains.
Wear protective goggles.
Following frequent use of the disinfectant spray and prior to hot-air sterilization, remove any
agent remainder by using the neutral cleaning agent and then a moistened towel to avoid
formation of permanent residues.
After using the disinfectant spray, allow the chamber to dry thoroughly, and aerate it
sufficiently.
18.3 Hot-air sterilization at 180 °C / 356 °F
The very first sterilization after operation may cause an odor. This is not a quality defect. We
recommend ventilating well the room during sterilization.

The chamber can perform an automatically controlled hot-air sterilization cycle. This procedure will take
approx. 10 hours and consists of the following steps:
• Heating up phase: The chamber heats up the inner chamber as fast as possible to the
sterilization setpoint temperature
• Holding phase: Constant sterilization setpoint temperature
The sterilization setpoint temperature is pre-set in factory to 187.5 °C / 369.5 °F. The
duration of the heating up and holding phase is in total 4 hours. This ensures that 180 °C /
356 °F is maintained on all internal surfaces for at least 30 minutes
• Cooling down phase: Programmed duration of 6 hours until 37 °C / 98.6°F is reached
• Equilibration phase: This phase of unlimited duration follows the sterilization with a
constant setpoint temperature of 37 °C / 98.6 °F
To start the hot-air sterilization cycle, go to Menu > Hot-air sterilization
