Electrical hazard warnings
The device must be connected to the electrical mains.
The electrical system must comply with the IEC 364-1 standard and the "National regulations for
installation of electrical systems in premises intended for medical purposes".
Check that the mains supply matches the power supply voltage indicated on the plate on the
autoclave rear panel. If in double, consult your dealer.
The plug on the autoclave has an earth connection. Make sure that you use an earthed socket and
position the device where it is not difficult to disconnect the plug.
If you use an extension cable, make sure that the cable type is adequate for the equipment
consumption.
Do not attempt to carry out maintenance on the autoclave when it is connected to the power.
Disconnect the power cable from the mains before working on the machine.
Maintenance and repair work must be carried out by personnel who have attained the training
certificate issued by Faro S.p.A.
Do not carry out maintenance work other than that described in this manual. Any work not
indicated in this manual could compromise equipment safety. Contact Faro technical service
for any work that is not specified.
Equipment explosion hazard warnings
Do not use any acids or corrosive substances to clean any parts of the autoclave. Specifically, do
not use hydrochloric acid or any detergent that contains chlorine. Using these substances may
compromise the mechanical integrity of the equipment and create an explosion hazard.
The pressure chamber is protected by a safety valve: annually check that it is working correctly.
Do not carry out maintenance work other than that described in this manual. Any work
not indicated in this manual could compromise equipment safety. Contact Faro technical
service for any work that is not specified.
Contamination hazard warnings
The autoclave must be installed in a suitable hygienically controlled environment.
Clean the chamber before using the device for the first time.
The autoclave works with distilled or demineralised water (see the technical specifications
on page 74). The device would not work properly with any other substance. Consult Faro
technical service if an unsuitable liquid is put inside.
Do not use toxic substances during the sterilisation process. Do not touch the contents of the
discharge tank.
Do not put substances or products that contain heavy metals (lead, mercury, bromine, hexavalent
chromium) into the chamber. If released, these products could contaminate the autoclave plum-
bing circuit and render it unusable.
NEVER REUSE WATER
Do not carry out maintenance work other than that described in the manual.
Only put heat-resistant products that do not release hazardous substances into the sterilisation
chamber. Always consult the manufacturer's technical specifications to ensure that the products
can be sterilised.
All items must be decontaminated and thoroughly cleaned and dried before being sterilised.
We recommend using chemical indicators to confirm the sterilisation process.
Operation failure hazard warning
If an error message appears while a sterilisation cycle is running, it will be necessary to repeat
the cycle.
Accidentally dropping the device may deform it and compromise proper operation. If this hap-
pens, have a full check done by technical support.
If there are instruments that are joined together, they must be divided or located in the most ven-
tilated and spacious place possible.
Lab coats or other reusable fabrics must be washed and dried after use and before sterilisation
to remove any organic material and increase the "life" of the fabric by restoring its natural water
content (i.e. humidity level).
Comply with the load limits defined in this manual for each type of sterilisation load.
