B" Type Autoclave; Night Cycle - Zhermack Zetaclave B 18 Manuel D'utilisation

table are only approximate: the type of sterilisation cycle selected should be based on data supplied
by the manufacturer of the items to be sterilised. This autoclave is not suitable for the sterilisation of
liquids. The overall cycle time can change due to various factors (e.g. weight and type of load, etc.).

To cancel a programme while running, press and hold the START/STOP button for at least
two seconds. When the autoclave displays alarm code AL0001, perform a reset by using the
SELECT - START/STOP buttons (as described in chapters 13 and 13.1).

NIGHT CYCLE

10.2
If the autoclave is not in use, it will switch to energy-saving mode with only the display
background lit. Pressing any key (except the START/STOP button), the display will show the result of
the last operation carried out (e.g. END CYCLE). Any cycle can be made a "Night cycle".
After the "night cycle", to the opening of the door, it is normal to find it condenses of water
on the gasket of the porthole and on the fund of the sterilization chamber.
In case of alarms repeat the operation!
