We recommend that you run the flushing and cleaning programs as follows:
Cleaning program
Short flushing
Long flushing
Suction cleaning
Waterline cleaning
NOTE
Always feed cold water to the dental unit.
NOTE
The water in the dental unit is intended for rinsing only, not for drinking.
NOTE
The water tap must be closed when the dental unit is not in use.
NOTE
If disinfectant is splashed on the surfaces of the dental unit, remove the
splashes instantly with water and mild soap to avoid stains.
In the Maintenance mode you can perform instrument flushing as well as
cleaning of the suction tubes and the dental unit's waterlines.
The duration of the cleaning procedure depends on the dental unit
configuration and the amount of instruments and suction tubes to be
cleaned.
When the cleaning procedure of the instruments is running, the status of the
procedure is displayed on the control panel.
The instrument hose positions on the control panel correspond to their
positions on the instrument console. A selected item is displayed in blue,
and an item that is being cleaned is displayed in a blinking green. When all
items have been cleaned, they are displayed in a steady green. If the
cleaning procedure for some reason is interrupted or not successful (for
example, there is no water flow), the item is displayed in yellow.
