4.4 Information
Basic information on the device design
• The instrument is designed according to state-of-the-art technology and recognized safety standards.
• However, if it is used inappropriately, hazards for the health and safety of the operating personnel or third parties,
as well as the risk of damaging the instrument and other material property, may arise.
Unauthorized modes of operation
• Do not operate the control unit with sharp-edged or hot objects. This causes damage to the display.
• The operation of the instrument with power sources, products, etc., which are subject to hazardous materials regulations
or could have any negative impact on the health of the operating personnel when using equipment modified by the user,
are not permitted.
• The unit may not be used without the firing tray. The firing tray must always be inserted in its designated recess at the
bottom of the firing unit. The unit may not be used with a flammable narcotic agent with air or nitrous oxide.
• The device is equipped with a fan. The fan is temperature-controlled. Activation, deactivation and speed of the fan are
controlled automatically. The fan prevents excessive heating of the unit and contributes to the overall operational safety.
The openings in the top cover of the firing chamber must not be covered or closed.
Authorized modes of operation
• The insulation of the firing chamber contains ceramic mineral fibers (Index No. 650-017-00-08), which is classified as a
CAT 2 carcinogen (Annex VI, EC 1272/2008). When working with the firing chamber or exchanging the firing muffle,
fiber dust may be discharged.
• Exposure to this dust can be potentially hazardous to health if inhaled and result in irritation of the skin, eyes and
respiratory organs. Therefore, always follow these instructions when replacing parts of the firing chamber:
• Wear long-sleeved protective clothing.
• Wear safety goggles, as well as protective gloves.
• Use a dust vacuum system or wear a FFP 2 respirator.
• Once work has been completed, rinse the dust from unprotected skin using cold water.
• Wash workwear separately from everyday clothing.
• The operation of the device is only permitted if these instructions for use have been completely read and understood and
the procedures described in them have been observed. Any other or additional use, e.g., processing of products other
than those intended, as well as handling of hazardous materials or substances injurious to health, is considered to be
contrary to the recommended use.
• Repairs and servicing of any kind may only be carried out by specially trained personnel.
Please note:
• The manufacturer/supplier will not be liable for any damage resulting from such unauthorized use. The risk is borne solely
by the user.

4.5 Safety functions
The firing unit has the following safety and monitoring features:
1. Temperature sensor monitoring
2. Power supply failure protection
3. Obstruction sensor
4. Temperature protection switch
5. Automatic temperature calibration
6. In the event of danger or an emergency, the device can be switched off immediately using the mains switch
Temperature sensor monitoring
The temperature sensor monitoring feature detects a failure of the temperature sensor in the firing chamber. If a failure of the
temperature sensor has been detected, the firing chamber is prevented from heating up and an error message is displayed.
Power supply failure protection
The instrument is equipped with power supply failure protection. This element prevents firing programs from aborting in the
event of a short-term power failure. If the power failure time lasts less than 15 seconds, the current program will continue to run
even though the display will remain out of service for the duration of the power failure. The current program is aborted if power
is interrupted for more than 15 seconds. An error message is displayed once power is restored.
Obstruction sensor
The vertical movement of the firing head is controlled by computer. Any trapped objects are detected and the drive is switched
off, if necessary. This prevents injuries caused by pinching. The system may still be operated without any restrictions after the
drive is switched off.
Temperature protection switch
Temperature protection switches are installed in the housing of the firing unit and prevent the firing unit from overheating by
switching off the heater if the heating control system malfunctions. An error message is displayed if this type of malfunction
occurs. The firing system may not be used again until the system cools down. This can take some time.
Automatic temperature calibration
The temperature is automatically calibrated each time the firing unit is switched on.
This temperature calibration takes into consideration and corrects all deviations occurring in the electronic components for
temperature measurement and temperature control. This ensures a constant temperature of ± 1°C, even if the unit remains in
continuous operation for a long period.

* Note "Optional process steps/firing": The feldspar and hybrid ceramic materials can be seated directly after milling and polishing. The following
process steps mentioned above are optional for feldspar ceramic. The same steps are required for the hybrid ceramic, but with the hybrid ceramic,
firing must not be carried out. When using zirconia, sinter firing is carried out prior to characterization/individualization.
Shade
determination
• For digital shade determination, use VITA Easyshade LITE
or VITA Easyshade V and for visual shade determination, the
VITA Linearguide 3D-MASTER or VITA classical A1–D4,
for example.
CAD/CAM
fabrication
• For CAD/CAM fabrication, VITA oers you highly-esthetic
feldspar ceramic, high-strength glass ceramic, innovative
hybrid ceramic and zirconia, as well as the zirconia-reinforced
lithium disilicate ceramic VITA AMBRIA as a press ceramic –
simply select the best material solution for your individual
requirements.
Shade
modification*
• For feldspar, glass ceramics and zirconia, use VITA AKZENT Plus
stains and the VITA LUMEX AC or VITA VM 11 veneering
ceramics. In terms of metal ceramics, you can choose between
VITA VM 13 and VITA VMK MASTER, and for individualization
of the VITA ENAMIC hybrid ceramic, either VITA AKZENT LC
stains or VITA VM LC veneering resin.
Firing*
• Glaze, stain, and/or dentine and crystallization firing in the
laboratory are best carried out with the VITA VACUMAT 6000 M
premium firing unit, and in clinics with the VITA SMART.FIRE
premium firing unit that is specifically tailored to chairside
restorations.
• You can use the combipress unit VITA VACUMAT 6000 MP
to fire and press your press ceramics.
• It is recommended to use the VITA ZYRCOMAT 6100 MS for
sinter firing.
• Note: When using a hybrid ceramic, firing must not be carried out.
Polishing • In the case of VITA feldspar ceramics, use polishing systems
suitable for silicate ceramics (e. g., VITA Polish Cera).
• For VITA glass and hybrid ceramics, ideally the VITA CERAMICS/
VITA ENAMIC Polishing Sets should be used.
Luting • VITA ADIVA LUTING SOLUTIONS are products for
adhesive bonding of restorations made of feldspar, glass ceramic
and hybrid ceramic, and are matched to VITA materials.
