26.5 Manual suction cleaning
About this task
User's manual
The system will first identify the instruments and then each instrument
hose is flushed with air and water in its turn. The time of flushing is the
same for all instruments. The total flushing time is displayed on the
control panel.
5. Release the instrument arms (if your dental unit is equipped with
balanced instrument arms).
6. Once the flushing cycle is finished, H 36 is displayed. Remove the
instruments from the flushing holder and return them to the instrument
console.
If water flow was not detected for all water consuming instruments,
H 36.1 is displayed. Run instruments for a while with spray water to
ensure that the flushing of instruments is sufficient.
7. Empty the instrument flushing holder.
NOTE
After the flushing cycle, the unit should immediately be switched off. This
procedure ensures that cool water remains in the pipelines of the unit, thus
minimising the growth of biofilm.
NOTE
The dental unit can be configured to display help message H 99 if the unit
has been switched off without performing long flushing after water has been
used. When H 99 has been enabled, it can be displayed as a reminder only,
or it can be set to disappear only after you have performed long flushing. To
take help message H 99 into use, contact your Planmeca dealer.
NOTE
You can adjust the length of the manual suction cleaning cycle, see section
"Adjusting maintenance functions" on page 169. The OroCup empties within
the defined time and no air comes into the suction tubes.
