In most cases alarms or errors are caused by lack of attention or lack of familiarity with
some technical and operational aspects. You will find below the list of some anomalies with
associated solutions.

16.2 The autoclave chamber has turned white

• Change immediately the type of water used, use exclusively demineralized or distilled
water, as indicated in the previous chapters and then clean the chamber.
• The whitish colour may be a consequence of the evaporation of organic materials from
the instruments. Instruments should undergo a more suitable and deeper cleaning.
• Check the demineralizer installed.
16.3 The autoclave chamber hass bluish-green stains
• Instruments have not been cleaned correctly after the cleaning, rinse more carefully, if
the stains remain apply to the phone technical service.
16.4 The sterilization cycle interrupts without any patent reason
• Check whether the autoclave is connected to the power mains through extensions,
reducers or adapters, if so remove such accessories and connect the autoclave directly
to the power socket.

16.5 The autoclave does not receive controls

• I The autoclave is carrying out the automatic barometric alignment, wait for the double
acoustic signal after the door opening , then set functions.
• The demineralized water tank is empty, the Led indicating the minimum level is ON, fill
the tank with pure water.
• The used water tank is full, the Led indicating the maximum level is ON, discharge used
water .

16.6 Stains on instruments

• Instruments get yellow due to the deposit of residual chemical fluid which has fixed on
the instruments due to heating. The rinsing was not suitable.
• The sterilization chamber has yellow stains. Some instruments with traces of chemical
fluid have been loaded into the chamber, such fluid has fixed due to heating. The rinsing
was not adequate.
• Instruments have whitish stains, the rinsing has been done with very limy water and the
instruments have not been carefully dried. For the final rinsing we suggest the use of
demineralized water and a careful drying of the instruments
• Instruments have blackened since the material they are made of contain a high
percentage of carbon.
