This W&H washer-disinfector is a Class IIb medical device (Directive
93/42/EEC).
This W&H washer-disinfector can be used to clean, rinse and
thermally disinfect a wide range of reprocessable medical devices for
dental use. Information issued by the manufacturers of medical
devices (ENISO17664) must be heeded.
Instruments such as dental instruments, suction instruments, trans-
mission instruments etc. can be reprocessed in this washer-disin-
fector.
UK only: This washer-disinfector is NOT intended for reprocessing
transmission instruments such as turbines, hand-pieces and con-
tra-angles.
The washer-disinfector is generally referred to as “the machine” in
these operating instructions. Reprocessable medical devices are re-
ferred to as “items” if they are not more closely defined.
Reprocessing items by machine achieves reproducible results and
should be used in preference to processing them by hand. Where dis-
infection is required for the protection of staff and/or patients, a
thermal disinfection programme, e.g. the Vario TD programme should
be selected.
According to the A0 concept described in EN ISO 15883-1, thermal
disinfection occurs at 90°C (+ 5 °C, - 0 °C) with 5 min holding time
(A0 3000), depending on the disinfection result required. The efficacy
standard A0 3000 is suitable for deactivating the HBV virus.
Regional and/or other official directives may apply (CFPP, HTM or rel-
evant technical memorandums in the UK). Refer to your country's
local and national health and safety regulations and guidelines.
The cleaning programme must be chosen according to the type of
soiling and load being processed.
The agents used for reprocessing the products should be selected to
suit the level of cleaning required.
The cleaning result must ensure that items can be disinfected cor-
rectly, that subsequent sterilisation can be carried out and that the
items can be used again safely.
Medical devices are best processed using the Vario TD programme
where applicable.

Intended use
9
The use of a suitable carrier (mobile unit, module, insert, etc.) is im-
portant to ensure the adequate cleaning of the load. Examples are
given in the section “Areas of application”.
This machine is programmed to carry out the final rinse with mains
water or with processed water of a quality to suit the application (e.g.
purified water, fully demineralised water or demineralised water).
This machine complies with EN ISO 15883 for validation purposes.
This device is designed to wash and disinfect surgical instruments
before endpoint sterilisation.
Wash pressure and spray arm monitoring
The washer-disinfector is equipped with a sensor for monitoring the
wash pressure during the active cleaning process stages.
Spray pressure monitoring is carried out according to the general val-
idation guideline and routine monitoring of machine cleaning and dis-
infection processes for thermostable medical devices of the Deutsche
Gesellschaft fuer Krankenhaushygiene e.V. (German Society for Hos-
pital Hygiene) (DHKG), the Deutsche Gesellschaft fuer Sterilgutversor-
gung e.V. (German society for sterile supplies) (DGSV) and the Arbeit-
skreis Instrumentenaufbereitung (Instrument Reprocessing Working
Group) (AKI) in accordance with ENISO15883.
The result of the spray pressure monitoring is recorded via the pro-
cess documentation.
Spray arm speed can also be monitored, e.g. for prompt detection of
blockages due to misloading or foam in the water circulation system.
Spray arm monitoring can be activated or deactivated by the W&H
Customer Service Department.

 Use of the machine is only permitted for the applications expressly
approved in the operating instructions. Alterations or conversion of
the machine, or using it for purposes other than those for which it
was intended, are not permitted and could be dangerous.
The cleaning and disinfection processes are only designed for med-
ical devices which are designated reprocessable by the manufacturer.
Instructions issued by load and instrument manufacturers must be
heeded.
 This machine is intended for indoor use only.
Risk of injury
Please pay attention to the following notes to avoid injury
 The machine may only be commissioned, repaired and maintained
by the W&H Customer Service Department or a service technician
authorised by the manufacturer of the machine. A W&H service con-
tract is recommended to ensure full compliance with medical device
regulations (such as the German Medical Device Ordinance). Incor-
rect repairs can cause considerable danger to users.
 Do not install the machine in an area where there is any risk of ex-
plosion or of freezing conditions.
 In order to reduce the risk of water damage, the area around the
machine should be limited to furniture and fittings that are designed
for use in commercial environments.
 Some metal parts pose a risk of injury/being cut. Wear cut-resist-
ant protective gloves when transporting and setting up the machine.
 If the machine is built under, it must only be installed under a con-
tinuous worktop run which is firmly secured to adjacent units to im-
prove stability.
 The electrical safety of the machine can only be guaranteed when
it is correctly earthed. It is essential that this standard safety require-
ment is observed and regularly tested. If in any doubt, please have
the electrical installation inspected by a qualified electrician. W&H or
the manufacturer cannot be held liable for the consequences of an in-
adequate earthing system (e.g. electric shock).

Warning and Safety instructions
15
 A damaged or leaking machine can pose a threat to your safety.
Always switch off a damaged or leaking machine immediately and
call the W&H Customer Service Department.
 Personnel operating the machine should be trained regularly. Un-
trained personnel must not be allowed access to the machine or its
controls.
 Only use chemical agents which have been approved by their
manufacturer for use in the application you are using. The chemical
agent manufacturer is responsible for any negative influences on the
material the load is made from and for any damage they may cause
to the machine.
 Take care when handling chemical agents. These may contain irrit-
ant, corrosive or toxic ingredients.
Please observe the chemical agent manufacturer's safety instructions
and safety data sheets.
Wear protective gloves and goggles.
 The machine is designed for operation with water and recommen-
ded additive chemical agents only. Organic solvents and flammable
liquid agents must not be used in it.
This could cause an explosion, damage rubber or plastic components
in the machine and cause liquids to leak out of it.
 The water in the cabinet must not be used as drinking water.
 Do not lift the machine by protruding parts such as the control
panel or the opened service flap as these could be damaged or torn
off.
 Do not sit or lean on the opened door. This could cause the ma-
chine to tip up and be damaged or cause an injury.
 Be careful when sorting items with sharp, pointed ends. Position
them in the machine so that you will not hurt yourself or create a
danger for others.
 Broken glass can result in serious injury when loading or unload-
ing. Broken glass items must not be processed in the machine.
 When operating the washer-disinfector, bear in mind the possibility
of high temperatures. If the door is opened bypassing the safety lock,
there is a danger of burning, scalding and chemical burns.
 Should personnel accidentally come into contact with toxic va-
pours or chemical agents, follow the emergency instructions given in
the manufacturer's safety data sheets.
 Mobile units, baskets, modules, inserts and the load must be al-
lowed 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.

Warning and Safety instructions
16
 Never clean the machine or near vicinity with a water hose or a
pressure washer.
 The machine must be disconnected from the mains electricity sup-
ply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out.
Quality assurance
The following points should be observed to assist in maintaining
quality standards when processing medical devices, in order to
protect patients, and to avoid damage to the loads being
cleaned.
 If it is necessary to interrupt a programme in exceptional circum-
stances, this may only be done by authorised personnel.
 The standard of cleaning and disinfection in the disinfection pro-
grammes must be routinely confirmed by the user. The process must
be thermo-electrically 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 repro-
cessing and are in good condition. Plastic items must be thermally
stable. Nickel plated items and aluminium items can be machine pro-
cessed using special procedures only.
Items containing iron, and soiling containing residual rust must not be
placed in the cabinet.
 Under certain circumstances, process chemicals may damage the
machine. Users are urged to follow the recommendations issued by
manufacturers of process chemicals.
Contact the W&H Customer Service Department in the event of dam-
age and any suspicion of material incompatibility.
 Instrument care products based on paraffin oils (white oils) can
damage the elastomers and plastic in the machine. Such care
products must not be dispensed as chemical agents in this machine
even if they are recommended for machine use by the care product
manufacturer.
 Abrasive substances must not be placed in the machine as they
could cause damage to the mechanical components of the water
supply. Any residues of abrasive substances on items to be washed
must be removed without trace before reprocessing in the machine.
 Pre-treatments with cleaning or disinfecting agents can create
foam, as can certain types of soiling and chemical agents. Foam can
have an adverse effect on the disinfection and cleaning result.
 Processes must be set up such that foam cannot escape from the
wash cabinet. It would hinder the correct functioning of the machine.

Warning and Safety instructions
17
 The process used must be monitored on a regular basis by the su-
pervisor to check foaming levels.
 To avoid the risk of damage to the machine and any accessories
used with it caused by chemical agents, soiling and any reaction
between the two please read the notes in “Chemical processes and
technology”.
 Even when a process chemical, e.g. cleaning agent, is recommen-
ded, W&H or the manufacturer takes no responsibility for the effect of
such chemicals on the load items.
Please note that changes in product formulation, storage conditions,
etc. which are not announced by manufacturers of process chemicals
may impair the quality of cleaning results.
 When using process chemicals, always consult the instructions is-
sued by individual manufacturers. Process chemicals must only be
used for the purpose they are designed for by the manufacturer to
avoid any material damage or the occurrence of very strong chemical
reactions (e.g. oxyhydrogen explosion).
 Always follow the relevant manufacturer's instructions on storage
and disposal of chemical agents.
 Particles ≥0.8mm are removed by the filters in the wash cabinet.
Smaller particles may find their way into the circulation system. For
this reason, processing of loads with narrow openings requires addi-
tional filtering of the wash water.
 In critical applications where very stringent requirements have to
be met, it is strongly recommended that all the relevant factors for the
process, such as cleaning agents, water quality, etc., are discussed
with W&H.
 The mobile units, baskets, modules and inserts that hold the load
must be used only as intended.
Hollow items must be thoroughly cleaned, internally and externally.
 Secure small and light items with cover nets or place in a mesh
tray for small items, so that they do not block the spray arms.
 Empty any containers or utensils before loading them.
 The amount of residual solvents and acids on items going into the
cabinet should be minimal.
There should be no more than a trace of any solvents with a flash
point of below 21°C.
 Chlorous solutions, in particular hydrochloric acid, must not be
placed in the cabinet.
 Ensure that solutions or steam containing chlorides or hydrochloric
acid do not come into contact with the stainless steel outer casing of
the machine in order to avoid any damage through corrosion.

Warning and Safety instructions
18
 After any plumbing work the water pipework to the machine will
need to be vented. If this is not done, components can be damaged.
 The gaps between a built-in machine and adjacent cabinetry must
not be filled e.g. with silicone sealant as this could compromise the
ventilation to the circulation pump.
 Follow the installation instructions in the operating and installation
instructions.
Using accessories
 Only use original spare parts and accessories from the manufac-
turer, which are suitable for the application they are required for.
Model designations are available from W&H.
 Only use mobile units, baskets, modules and inserts from the ma-
chine manufacturer. Using mobile units, baskets and inserts made by
other manufacturers or making modifications to original accessories
can result in an unsatisfactory cleaning and disinfection result. Any
resultant damage would not be covered by the warranty.
