4.3 RUNNING A STERILIZAZION CYCLE
1. Turn on the equipment by means of the switch located on the rear panel.
 The display shows date, time and OFF; pushing UP, DOWN or START for short time) the brightness
of the display increases for few seconds
2. Push the key Power and wait for a few seconds the initial auto-test completion; during this time the pa-
rameter set-points and the type of the components currently tested will appear in a sequence on the dis-
play. Over the auto-test, the display will show the value of the current pressure and chamber temperature
(if lower than 35 °C the display will show the message “low”). The microprocessor enables the pre-heat-
ing step in order to rise the chamber temperature up to 100 °C.
 The pre-heating phase is designed to keep warm the chamber so the cycles are faster, this function
increases the power consume in stand by condition; if the unit is not continuously used and the high
speed is not required, it is possible to set the unit in ECO MODE that keeps the chamber cold when
not needed. This system has not effect on the performance of the cycle. Look at SETUP pages.
 During this phase the temperature reading on the display is inaccurate, because no steam being
there.
3. Arrange the material to be sterilized on the trays, load the chamber and close the door.
4. Check the indication of the water level, if missing fill up the main tank with demineralized water up to the
max level.
4.3.1 Available sterilization cycles
(*) In case of needs related to local regulations, the sterilization time of all the cycles may be increased on request by author-
ized technical service

To select the programs push UP or DOWN.
The display will show the parameters selected and the type of admitted load
