1.10 WARNING — Slipping Hazard
WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Changing vacuum pump oil could present a slipping hazard – promptly clean floor
around unit. Wear Personal Protective Equipment (PPE; refer to Glossary) when
cleaning floor of any vacuum pump oil.
1.11 CAUTION — Possible Equipment Damage
CAUTION
POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
Use nonabrasive cleaners when cleaning the unit. Follow directions on the container.
For stainless steel, rub in a back-and-forth motion (in the same direction as the surface
grain). Abrasive cleaners damage stainless steel and aluminum. Cleaner rubbed in a
circular motion or applied with a wire brush or steel wool can be harmful to stainless
steel and aluminum. Do not use abrasive cleaners on painted and plastic surfaces.
Never use a wire brush, abrasives or steel wool on inside of chamber door and chamber
assembly.
Flexible endoscope damage may occur from the vacuum produced inside Sterilization
Unit chamber from inability to vent air normally present inside endoscope unless:
● If flexible endoscope is equipped with Ethylene Oxide (EO) or Venting Cap, these caps
MUST BE used per manufacturer's instructions.
● All water resistant or immersion caps used in any cleaning procedures MUST BE
removed prior to Sterilization.
Do not operate vacuum pump motor (M1) longer than needed to verify rotation or pump
damage might occur. Allow pump to warm before using.
The door closed switch must be adjusted for minimum protrusion past the end frame. If
the switch protrudes too far, the door will touch the threaded part of the switch. This
would cause the door to be held off of the door gasket and result in a leak.
