Disconnect the mains power plug before cleaning.
The rails and shelves can be removed from the unit's
interior to facilitate cleaning.
The operator must check with the manufacturer that
the intended procedure will not damage the incu-
bator before using any cleaning or decontamination
procedures other than those recommended by the
manufacturer.
Stainless steel products are manufactured with rust-
proof steel. When used under standard laboratory
conditions, they do not rust. However it is possible
that stains (which may look like rust) to form on the
steel surface (due e.g. to the kind of samples incu-
bated in the chamber). In such cases, we recom-
mend using a cleaning solution (to clean the stains)
suitable for this particular application, such as Pelox.
When cleaning stainless steel products with a spe-
cialised cleaning solution, care should be taken
to observe the suggestions and recommendations
given in the instructions for use (or in the safety data
sheet) of the cleaning solution.
WARNING
The incubator may be contaminated.
There is a risk of contamination by bacteria, viruses or
other pathogens. Based on its own hazard analysis,
the operator must define whether and in what form
personal protective equipment must be worn.
■
Clean the housing and the interior of the incubator at
least once a week, if necessary using soap or a mild deter-
gent and a damp cloth. Cleaning serves firstly to promote
hygiene, and secondly to prevent corrosion due to adhering
impurities.
■
Ingredients of suitable detergents: Soap, anionic surfac-
tants, non-ionic surfactants.
■
After using detergents, remove any detergent residues by
wiping with a damp cloth.
■
The surfaces must be dried immediately after cleaning.
■
The interior must be checked annually for damage.
■
Electrical parts should not come into contact with water or
detergent.
■
Clean the touchscreen using a soft cloth or cleansing foam
for cleaning touchscreens.
■
The USB port can be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner to
prevent accumulation of dirt inside the port.
