OWNER’S MANUAL
• If a power outage occurs during any part of the cycle, the sterilizer is equipped with a
battery back up on the circuit board that will keep track of elapsed cycle time. When
power is restored, the cycle will continue. Do not open the door of the sterilizer until
power is restored and the vent/purge systems have removed any residual gas from
the liner bag.
☺ HINT: In the case of any sterilizer malfunction or power failure, you can determine
whether sterilization was achieved by examining the Steritest biological indicator
included in the load.
3) Reasons for locking the Anprolene sterilizer:
1. To protect the contents from spark or flame.
2. To protect the liner bag from puncture.
3. To ensure the Anprolene sterilizer exhausts the ethylene oxide through the
ventilation system and abator, if installed, to the outside.
Note: No other container or sterilizer can be used with Anprolene sterilizing gas.
4) Reasons why the gas release bag containing the ampoule should never be opened:
1. To prevent the liquid ethylene oxide from coming in contact with the user or the
items to be sterilized.
2. To prevent the gas from escaping too quickly to achieve sterilization.
