Porthole gasket replacement
Check: yearly or every 1000 cycles
Instructions:
- Open the sterilising chamber door.
- Manually remove the gasket by grasping the lip with two fi ngers (observe how the lip of
the seal is fi tted).
- Clean the site of the gasket with a cloth moistened with alcohol or with a cotton-bud.
- Moisten the new gasket with water or alcohol.
- Fit the gasket in 6 points and then use one fi nger to arrange the parts of the gasket inside
the site.
- Insert the new gasket in its site with lips turned outward, arranging it evenly around the
circumference, using the fi ngers with constant pressure along the entire perimeter of the
gasket.
- On completion of the procedure, check that no points have been incorrectly inserted or that
the gasket presents no protrusion. In case of protrusions, remove the gasket and perform
the insertion process once again.
The gasket must be correctly positioned to avoid leakage. It must be inserted
along the entire circumference without either protrusions or deformations.
