3GENERAL WARNINGS
Leaning or sitting on the open door of the device might cause it to tip over, putting people in
danger. The door is not designed primarily to support loads.
The maximum weight which can be loaded on the door, including the weight of the instrument
trolley, must never exceed 37kg (if the weight of the instrument trolley and baskets is excluded,
the maximum processable load must never exceed 23kg).
With use of the glassware washer, localised or general discolouring of the heating element may
occur. This is normal since it is due to the operating mode and does not reduce the appliance’s
effectiveness.
In the event of malfunction, disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply and turn off the
water tap. Then contact your nearest authorised Service Centre.
Open the door carefully, first waiting for the wash cycle to end.
The appliance has an automatic door opening system; do not force the door open while a program
is in progress.
The appliance must only be used by staff suitably trained in its operation.
The chamber of the appliance is not designed for users to climb into it. The user must never climb
into the chamber; this might put his safety at risk (ref. 7.102 IEC61010-2-040:2005).
Do not place flammable substances inside the device. Do not use flammable detergents.
Never place alcohol or solvents such as turpentine, which might cause an explosion, inside the
appliance. Do not place materials dirty with ash, wax or paint inside the appliance.
DEMI WATER ABSENCE
If demineralised water is not available, the user is responsible for ensuring that the quality of the
water supplied to the medical device does not cause mineral salts or other substances to be
deposited on the treated instruments, rendering their subsequent use unsafe.
Never touch the heating element immediately after the end of a wash programme.
Do not touch any residual liquids left inside the washing chamber; scalding hazard (ref. 7.102.c
IEC61010-2-040:2005).
When moving the appliance around, a forklift truck or pallet truck must be used.
Before leaving the factory, the base of the appliance is secured to a pallet, which is used for lifting
and transporting it.
Do not use appliances which have been damaged in transit!
If in doubt, contact your dealer.
Once decommissioned, the appliance must be rendered unusable. Cut the power supply cable
after removing the plug / disconnecting the cable from the power socket.
