2. Fill the water tray with 300 ml of processed water.
3. Turn the device on using the power switch.
4. Activate decontamination routine (see table in Section 9.4).
5. After the decontamination routine has been completed, remove the remaining

ContraCon decontamination routine procedure:
Fig. 22: The routine is divided into four phases. Each individual phase or several
phases can be cancelled (i.e. skipped).
If the operating step "Cancel ContraCon routine" is executed, the routine moves
to the next program phase. To cancel the routine completely, the operating step
must be executed repeatedly until the remaining run time display shows the
value 0.
When the glass door is opened, this operating step cancels the routine completely.
The remaining run time of the ContraCon decontamination routine designates the
period between the start or the current routine time state and the cooling down to
the preset temperature nominal value (± 2° C).
