The Chamber Cap cannot be opened after operation due to buildup of air pressure inside the Chamber increasing during operation.
Release the pressure remaining in the Chamber before putting powder in the Chamber or removing the Chamber from the Control Unit.

a cup to catch the powder and water.

1) Take the Powder Handpiece out of the Handpiece Holder.
2) Place the Handpiece into the container to catch powder and water.
3) Touch and hold the Auto-Cleaning Key for about 1 second. Beeps are heard and the residual pressure starts to be released.
4) The operation stops when all the residual pressure is released from the Chamber.
