Safety Precautions are repeated throughout the manual. It is important to review all Safety Precautions before

operating or servicing the unit.

Strictly following these Safety Precautions enhances your ability to safely and effectively use the unit and helps to

avoid improper maintenance methods which may damage the unit or render it unsafe. It is important to understand

that these Safety Precautions are not exhaustive; customers are encouraged to develop their own safety policies and

procedures to enhance and complement these Safety Precautions.

PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD

Read and understand the operating instructions in this manual before attempting to use the equipment.

Follow each step in the order presented in these instructions. If you need technical assistance or

additional instructions, call STERIS.

Do not modify this equipment without authorization of the manufacturer.

If this equipment is modified, appropriate inspection and testing must be conducted to ensure continued

safe use of equipment.

Avoid tipping hazard. Verify cabinet(s) are level.

When connecting or disconnecting the channel purge tubing sets from flexible endoscopes, care must be

taken to not only protect the endoscope, but also the tubing sets from being damaged. When

disconnecting, please make sure you follow these steps to ensure your tubing sets will last and do the job

they are intended to do.
