Using the sterilizer
Arrange instruments of different metals, previously separated, on different trays;
When sterilising instruments made of metal other than stainless steel, place a sheet of sterilization paper
between the tray and the instrument to avoid direct contact between the two materials;
position cutting instruments so that they do not come into contact during the sterilization cycle; if necessary,
isolate them with gauze or cotton cloth;
arrange receptacles and containers (tubes, cups, glasses, etc.) on their sides or in an inverted position as water
accumulation must be avoided;
do not place more instruments on the trays than they can contain; any overloading must be avoided;
arrange the instruments with sufficient spacing and ensure that they remain separated throughout the
sterilization cycle.
position articulated pieces, such as scissors, in an open position;
do not stack the trays one above another or in direct contact with the walls of the chamber; always use the tray
support provided with the sterilizer;
always use the supplied extraction clamp to insert or remove the trays from the sterilization chamber.
