other seals.
This test is performed during the vacuum phase.
Press number 1 and then number 2 within two seconds, to select cycle 12 -Air Leakage
test.
Press START to automatically run the pre-programmed AAMI air leakage cycle

authorized Tuttnauer technical representative.
Performance Description:
A vacuum is drawn in the chamber down to 18 kPa. At this stage all valves and motors
are closed. A period of 5 minutes is counted to enable stabilization of pressure. During
the next 10 minutes the pressure is monitored.
The acceptable change of pressure during these 10 minutes is 1.3 kPa.
