3 Maintenance, Cleaning, Diagnosis

This chapter describes the user maintenance and cleaning procedures for the Programat CS6. Only the tasks listed may be
carried out by qualified dental technicians or dental laboratory professionals. All other tasks must be performed by qualified
service personnel at a certified Ivoclar Vivadent Service Centre.

3.1 Monitoring and maintenance

The time for these maintenance procedures depends on the frequency of use and the working habits of the users. For that
reason, the recommended times are only approximations.
Hazardous area
Check all plug-in connections for correct fit.
Visually make sure that the thermocouple is straight. Do not touch
the thermocouple in the process.
Check if the sealing rim of the furnace head and furnace base is
clean and undamaged.
Check the membrane-sealed keypad for visible damage. If the key-
pad is damaged, it has to be replaced by a certified Ivoclar Service
Centre.
Check if the furnace head opens smoothly and without excessive
noise.
Check the insulation for cracks and damages. If the insulation is
worn down, it has to be replaced by a certified Ivoclar Vivadent
Service Centre. Fine hairline cracks on the surface of the insulation
are harmless and do not negatively affect the function of the
furnace.
Check if there is condensate in the vacuum hose or firing chamber.
Conduct temperature check:
Use the temperature checking set to check and adjust the
temperature in the furnace.
This furnace has been developed for typical use in dental offices. If the product is used in continuous operation,
premature ageing of the expendable parts is to be expected.
Expendable parts include the heating elements and the object tray.
Expendable parts are not covered by the warranty. Please also observe the shorter service and maintenance intervals.
