7.3.1Daily cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning the retort lid

Remove wax from the inside of the retort lid with the plastic scraper provided. Make sure to remove all wax from around the retort lid seal.

For convenience, the lid may be removed during cleaning by lifting it vertically and sliding it towards the console.

Cleaning the retort

The retort may be wiped clean using a cloth moistened with solvent (xylene or alcohol) or mild detergent. Ensure that the air holes at the top front of the retort are open - remove all dirt!

Cleaning the retort strainer

Use alcohol or xylene to clean the strainer located at the bottom of the retort. For convenience, the strainer may be taken out to remove all solid dirt.

Cleaning the touch screen

On the MENU FUNCTIONS screen press CLEAN TOUCH SCREEN.

Clean the touchscreen.

Press ENABLE EXIT and then BACK to return to MENU FUNCTIONS.

Cleaning the processor module top surface

Remove both lids for cleaning.

First scrape the stainless steel surface with the plastic scraper and then wipe down.

Reagent and condensate bottle seal lubrication

To ensure easy removal of the reagent and condensate bottles, lu- bricate the O-ring seals on the plug-in nozzles with the O-ring lubri- cant supplied.

Check regularly whether the reagent bottles are still properly con- nected to the connection manifolds in the instrument. Retighten, if necessary.
