2. PRE-OPERATION PROCEDURES
Installation Precautions
1. Opening lid.
Before opening unit lid, be sure that the pressure
gauge reads “0 psi". Then, proceed to open
slowly. If lid is opened while unit is still under
pressure, hot steam will abruptly escape chamber,
possibly resulting in burns or other serious
personal injury, caused by sudden reflexive
movements.
2. Draining sterilization chamber.
Water in chamber is very hot following operation
runs. Allow water to cool sufficiently before
draining. Place a drain pan less than 2 inches
deep under the drain outlet or connect a drain
hose routed to an appropriate drain before
opening the drain valve.
Never drain water during operation. If drain
valve is opened while unit is pressurized, hot
water will spray out, possibly causing burns or
other serious injury.
3. Drain bottle view window.
Check the drain bottle level regularly by looking
through the view window, located on the front panel. If
water level is near the upper limit caution label, be
sure to drain some water before proceeding with any
further operations.
