Periodic cleaning is required. To clean the incubator, perform the following steps:
1. Remove all of the interior parts, if assembled.
2. Clean the incubator with a mild soap and water solution, including all corners. DO NOT USE spray cleaners that
might leak through openings and cracks and get on electrical components, or that may contain solvents that will
harm coatings. DO NOT USE chlorine-based bleaches or abrasives, as they will damage the stainless steel
interior.
3. Rinse with distilled water and wipe dry with a soft cloth.
4. Special care should be taken when cleaning around the sensing heads to prevent damage.
Disinfecting

1. Remove all of the interior parts, if assembled.
2. Disinfect the incubator, including all corners and the access port, using a suitable disinfectant. Shelves and shelf
clips are autoclaveable. DO NOT USE spray disinfectants that might leak through openings and cracks and get
on electrical components, or that may contain solvents, corrosives, or abrasives that will harm the stainless steel
coatings. Special care should be taken when cleaning around sensing heads to prevent damage and around the
door gasket so as not to impair the positive seal.
3. If a hazardous material/substance has been spilled in the unit, immediately initiate your site’s Hazardous Material
Spill Containment protocol. Contact your local Site Safety Officer and follow instructions per the policy and
procedures established for your site.
4. There are many commercially available disinfectants available that are non-corrosive and non-abrasive and
suitable for use on stainless steel surfaces. Contact your local Site Safety Officer for detailed information for the
proper disinfectants suitable for your operation.
Warning
: Never clean the unit with alcohol or flammable cleaners and assure all volatile or flammable cleaners

Periodically inspect the door latch, trim, catch and gasket for signs of deterioration. Failure to maintain the integrity of
the door system will shorten the life span of the incubator.
