Warning and safety instructions
Take care when handling chemical agents such as cleaning agent, neutralising agent, rinsing agent etc. These may contain irritant or corrosive ingredients.
Please follow the manufacturer's safety instructions. Wear protective gloves and goggles. With all chemical agents, the manufacturer's safety instructions and safety data sheets must be observed.
The machine is designed for operation with water and recommended additive chemical agents only. Organic solvents and flammable liquid agents must not be used in this machine. These could cause an explosion, damage rubber and plastic components in the machine, and cause liquids to leak out of the machine.
The water in the cabinet must not be used as drinking water.
Be careful when sorting items with sharp pointed ends and positioning them in the machine that you do not hurt yourself or create a danger for others. Sharp knives etc. should be placed in baskets with the pointed ends facing downwards.
When using this machine in the higher temperature ranges, be especially careful not to scald or burn yourself or come into contact with irritant substances when opening the door. Where disinfecting agents are used there is a danger of inhaling toxic fumes.
Where there is a risk of toxic or chemical substances occuring in the suds solution (e.g. aldehyde in the disinfecting agent), it is essential to regularly check door seals and make sure that the steam condensor is functioning correctly.
Opening the machine door during a programme interruption carries particular risks in such circumstances.
Should personnel accidentally come into contact with toxic vapours or chemical agents, follow the emergency instructions given in the manufacturer's safety data sheets.
Mobile units, modules, inserts and the load must be allowed 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.
After using the hot air drying unit,
open the door to allow the everything in the cabinet from the load itself to the mobile units, modules and inserts to cool down.
Steam heating is permissible up to a pressure of 1000 kPa (10 bar). This corresponds to a water steam temperature of 179°C.
Never clean the machine or near vicinity with a water hose or a pressure washer.
The machine must be disconnected from the mains electricity supply before any maintenance or repair work is carried out. Do not reconnect it until the maintenance or repair work has been successfully completed.
