1.- Clean: the silicone gasket, door disk and the chamber/silicone gasket contact area.
Clean parts with a damp cloth (do not use alcohol). Do not let dirt get accumulated because
it can affect the leak tightness on the door and consequently the silicone
gasket can bend or break.
2.- General cleaning of the external surfaces.
Clean all the external parts using a damp cloth with common neutral detergent (do not use
abrasive or corrosive products). Do not clean the autoclave directly with
pressurised water to avoid it leaking into the machine.
3.- Cleaning of the sterilisation chamber.
4.- Cleaning of the trays and support.
Carefully clean the sterilisation chamber, the tray support and the trays (or sterilisation
vessels) with a damp cloth or with common neutral soap. Then rinse them with alcohol and
finally with water.
IMPORTANT: Do not use disinfectant products to clean the chamber.
5.- Replacement of the bacteriological filter.
In places where there is a lot of dust, replace the bacteriological filter more frequently.

Reset the machine as described in section 4.3.6.5.
6.- Replacement of the silicone gasket on the door.

6.2. PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

be repeated every 10 cycles, only once a day, until the maintenance is carried out.
For this kind of maintenance, the SATELEC - ACTEON Group Authorised Technical Support
will carry out a general inspection of the machine, clean inside the distilled water and
waste water tank, clean the internal filters, etc. as required.
CAUSE SOLUTIONS
Put the main switch on.
Restore the supply.
