IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Should personnel accidentally come into contact with toxic vapors
or process chemicals, follow the emergency instructions given in the
manufacturer's safety data sheets.

Mobile units, baskets, modules, inserts and the load must be
allowed to cool down before they are unloaded. Any water remaining
in containers could still be very hot. Empty them into the wash
cabinet before taking them out.

Never clean the machine with a water hose or a pressure washer.

The machine must be disconnected from the electrical supply
before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.

Depending on the properties of the flooring and footwear worn on
it, liquids can cause a slipping hazard. Keep the floor dry where
possible and take care to clean up any liquid spills straight away.
Take the necessary precautions when cleaning up hazardous
substances and hot liquids.
Quality assurance
The following points should be observed to assist in maintaining
quality standards when processing laboratory glassware and
utensils and avoid damage to the loads being cleaned.

If it is necessary to interrupt a program, as an exception only, this
may only be done by authorized personnel.

The cleaning standard must be routinely confirmed by the user.
The process should be validated on a regular basis, and checked
against documented control results.

For thermal disinfection, use temperatures and temperature holding
times to achieve the required infection prophylaxis in accordance with
current health and safety regulations.

Make sure items being washed are suitable for machine
reprocessing and are in good condition. Plastic items must be
thermally stable. Nickel plated items and aluminum items can be
machine processed using special procedures only.
Items containing iron, and soiling containing residual rust must not be
placed in the cabinet.

Process chemicals can, in certain circumstances, cause damage to
the machine. Always follow the recommendations of the process
chemical manufacturer.
