Safety regulations
This machine has been designed with a number of built-in safety devices. To avoid
injury, it is very important that these safety devices are not bypassed and thus
disabled.
The equipment must be used in accordance with the safety instructions below.
If in doubt, contact a representative of the reseller without delay.
Important
• Read the instructions thoroughly before use.
• The equipment must only be used by personnel who know about it and are
trained to use it. Personnel must also receive regular training on this equipment.
• Take care when handling the chemical agent used in the machine. Read the
details on the container or contact the manufacturer:
- if the agent comes into contact with the operator’s eyes or skin or if the
vapours are breathed in, etc.
- about storing the agent and disposing of empty containers.
• Take care, because the machine uses hot water and possibly steam.
• Installation and service work must be done by personnel trained for this
machine.
• Never bypass the door switch of the machine.
• Leakage in the system, due to a worn door seal for example, must be repaired
withoutdelay.
• The electric power must be cut off before the machine cabinet is opened. (The
machine cabinet contains electrical components).
• make sure that there is always detergent in the bottles. This is important both for
the operation of the machine and for keeping the washing chamber free from
discolorations.
• The machine must be kept clean if it is to work properly.
• Do not wash down or hose down the machine with water.

control system
The machine has an electronic controller which can hold up to 10-15 programs. Six
of these programs can be chosen with the program selection buttons. Other
programs are chosen with the menu buttons; see Operating instructions.
The machine comes with a number of standard programs in the control system (see
the separate program sheet). Contact the your reseller for customized programs.
Programming may only be done by authorized personnel.
Door function
46-2 is fitted with a single door. 46-4 and 46-5 are fitted either with a single door or
withdouble doors.
Machines with double doors have a system of interlocks to ensure that only one
door can be opened at a time. This means that the clean-side door must be closed
before the soiled-side door can be opened.
When you press V, the door is locked and a yellow lamp flashes for about 10
seconds. If you press Vagain during this “cancel time”, the soiled-side door is
unlocked and the door can be opened.
When the program is complete, a green lamp lights up on both sides (if there are
double doors) and the clean-side door is unlocked. When the door has been opened
manually, the green lamp goes out. With double doors, the clean-side door must be
closed before the soiled-side door can be unlocked.

Dosing system
In standard form, the machine has two dosing systems. One is for alkaline
detergent and one is for rinse-aid or acid detergent.
The machine cannot be started until detergent has been added. If the detergent
holder is empty, “DOS 1 LOW LEVEL”, for example, appears on the display.
A third and a fourth dosing system for chemical disinfection of heat-sensitive goods
or instrument milk, for example, can be installed.
Drying
If the machine does not have a dryer, we recommend that the goods are dried in a
separate drying cabinet.

Inspection
Daily
• Check that no objects have fallen down into the bottom of the washing chamber.
Loose objects may cause blockages and seriously reduce the performance of
the washer disinfector.
• Check that the spray arms can rotate freely. Check that the holes in the spray
arms are not blocked. Blocked spray holes may adversely affect the cleaning
result.
If the arms need cleaning, remove them by unscrewing the central nut. The
arms can then be lifted off and washed clean. Check that the arms can rotate
freely when re-installed.
• Remove and clean the strainer in the bottom of the washing chamber. A dirty
coarse strainer may prevent water from circulating and provide the conditions
for the growth of bacteria.
The heating coils under the coarse strainer may be hot.
• If necessary for cleaning, open the strainer with the two nuts.
• Open the detergent door and check that there is detergent/rinse-aid in the
containers.
• Check that the trolley docks properly with the water connections. If the trolley
does not dock properly, adjust the spring.
• Visually check the accessories of the machine with regard to intended use and
function, eg blocked ducts or damaged and missing parts that might adversely
affect the performance of the machine.
• Check that the dockings move easily.

When necessary
Washing chamber
Keep the washing chamber free of limescale deposits. Remove any remaining
depositsasfollows:
• Open the door and dispense 200 ml NEODISHER BU descaler (sold by Dr.
Weigert) into the wash chamber.
• Close the door and run the descaling program.
(NOTE: Do not have any goods in the machine with this program. It is only for descaling
the machine and insert.
The outside
The front and side walls can be cleaned and disinfected with an alcohol-based
cleaning agent, medical spirit or an ordinary cleaner. the control panel is cleaned in
the same way.
Remove stains with an ordinary cleaner for stainless steel.
If the washer disinfector is used without automatic descaling for incoming water,
the heating element must be checked regularly for limescale deposits.
It is important to maintain a high level of hygiene around the machine.
