Note: According to ABNT NBR 11816: 2003, the sterilization temperature i Interval must have the inferior limit defined by the sterilization temperature and superior limit of + 3°C.
If this is not the first cycle of the day and the temperature inside the autoclave is
above 70 °C, when pressing , 2 beeps will continuously sound, and the autoclave will
keep on standby mode, with the Cristófoli logo on. Wait some minutes until the
temperature of the chamber decreases and try again.
The table below shows the default values of the sterilization cycle:

Close the door of the autoclave pressing it against the chamber and move the handle
all the way down (Figures. 8 and 9).
Load the autoclave with the materials to be sterilized, be careful to not lean them against the chamber walls or
internal steam exits, the sterilization cycle. Do not overload the failure to follow these instructions may interrupt
autoclave. Do not exceed 75% of the chamber capacity Place the envelopes always with the paper (table 4).

Press to start, the autoclave will beep once, and the LED Aquecendo/Secando
(Heating/Drying) will be on, announcing the heating process, that may last between 10
and 60 minutes, depending on temperature, altitude, electrical wire, and amount of
instruments (table 5). During the functioning, the LEDs will show the increasing and
decreasing of pressure and temperature.
If when pressing the autoclave beeps continuously, it means the door is not
properly closed. Open and close the door correctly, as shown in the figures 8 and 9.
If the autoclave beeps 3 times, light on Aquecendo/Secando (Heating/Drying),
Cancelado (Canceled), and the 7 first temperature/pressure LEDs, it means the
operator needs to open and close the door again.
