The SPECIAL cycle is an alternative to the standard cycles listed in the Table of
cycles/sterilizable material, and can be programmed based on specific sterilization needs
for special instruments or other loads. The SPECIAL cycle is not covered by the technical
requirements of the EN 13060 standard with which the COMINOX autoclaves comply: for
this reason, only qualified laboratory personnel are permitted to use the SPECIAL cycle.
These people, authorized by the Administrator, must execute a confirmation (for example,
in line with standard EN 554) for each special programmed cycle, with a specific
reference load.

be emptied. If any one of these operations has not been performed, the sterilizer will
indicate this with a message on the display.
