program start.
Lock the door by pushing it forward as far as it will go and
turning the grip 90° clockwise. The groove in the grip must
be at right angles to the longitudinal axis of the steam
sterilizer, see Close the door [}page28].
F10 A program was started again immediately
after a program abort.
Wait approx. 2 min before starting a new program after a
program abort.
The feed water inlet hose is kinked or has
come loose.
Check the hose for kinks and that it is correctly connected
to the steam sterilizer and feed water container.
The sieve tray in the sterilization chamber is
soiled.
Remove the sieve tray from the sterilization chamber,
clean and replace it, see Sieve tray of the sterilization
chamber [}page49].
When using a MELAG water treatment unit:
Residual air is in the feed system of the
water treatment unit after initial
commissioning or after replacing the mixed-
bed resin cartridge.
Acknowledge the malfunction message and start the
program repeatedly until the message is no longer
displayed.
F12 The door is not locked correctly. Lock the door by pushing it forward as far as it will go and
turning the grip 90° clockwise. The groove in the grip must

The front door hinge is damaged. The door
can be pushed forward a little too far as a
result.
Contact an authorised customer services / stockist
technician and have the door hinge repaired. To bridge the
gap, you can push the door back a little after locking it. The
door lock must audibly engage.
