Ultrasonic Unit Operating Instructions Before placing items in the IND-Series to be cleaned, the liquid will need to be degassed. Turn on the ultrasonics for at least 10 minutes to degas the cleaning liquid. (See page 15 for more details on degassing). The IND-Series is now ready to use.
Heated Unit Operating Instructions To start a timed cycle: Press the CYCLE key. The CYCLE light will glow, activity will commence in the liquid and the display will count down from the set time.
