Program abort before the start of drying
WARNING
Danger of infection from early program abort
Aborting a program before the drying phase begins means that the load is unsterile. This
endangers the health of your patients and practice team.
n If necessary, repack the load and repeat the sterilization for the sterilization material
affected.
Should you still wish to do so, proceed as follows to abort the program during drying:
1. Press CANCEL on the action bar.
2. Confirm the security query with YES.
3. After a short time, you can open the door by pressing
the symbol. The display shows a warning;
the log records the sterilization asNOT
successful.
Program abort after the start of drying
Should you abort a program after drying has started, the sterilization is having been completed
successfully. The steam sterilizer issues a malfunction message. You then need to expect insufficient
drying, especially in the case of wrapped sterilized equipment and a full load. Sterile storage requires
sufficient drying. To ensure this, please allow programs with wrapped sterilized equipment to continue to
the end of the drying phase as far as is possible. Unwrapped instruments sterilized in a Quick-Program dry
after being removed from their own warmth.
