CB (E6.1) 07/2017 Page 112/145
18.3.5 Terminating successful sterilization during the cooling-down phase (abortion
after more than 4 hours)
The duration of the entire sterilization is approx. 10 hours. If you want to shorten the sterilization
procedure in order to save time, you can abort it during the cooling-down phase, i.e. no sooner than after
4 hours. At this point, the inner temperature is still approx. 140 °C / 284°F.
The effective sterilization phase is automatically finished after 4 hours The chamber is in the cooling-
down phase, meaning that the necessary duration for the proper sterilization phase has occurred.
This symbol on the controller display indicates a successful hot-air sterilization.
The sterilization cycle is now in the cooling down phase.
CAUTION
Glass door and inner chamber become hot during sterilization.
Danger of burning.
∅ Do NOT touch the glass door and inner surfaces for approx. 4 hours after aborting
sterilization.
