2. Safety Information
Important Safety Precautions:
- Always add approximately 800 ml of distilled water before each sterilization cycle. Using tap water can lead to mineral buildup and damage the unit.
- Connect the autoclave to a separate electrical socket. Ensure the socket's output voltage matches the device's requirements (AC110V; 60±1Hz).
- If the pressure gauge pointer enters the red area, immediately open the exhaust steam needle valve to release pressure.
- Do not open the sterilizer door until the pressure gauge reads zero and all steam has been safely exhausted.
- Operate the device within the specified ambient temperature range of 5-40℃.
- Keep hands and face away from the steam exhaust during operation and depressurization.
- Ensure proper ventilation around the unit during operation.
