- Broken glass can result in serious injury when loading or unloading.
Damaged glass load items must not be reprocessed in the ma-
chine.
- Nickel and chrome-plated load items, and load items made of alu-
minium, require special procedures and are not generally suitable
for machine reprocessing. Special process conditions are required
for these load items.
- With items which are made entirely or partly of plastic, observe the
maximum thermal stability for the items and select an appropriate
programme or adjust the temperature of the programme.
 Danger of explosion due to flammable gases.
Flammable solvents with a flash point below 21 °C outgas and can
generate a flammable mix of gases.
Only load the machine with load items which are wetted with traces
of solvents at most.
Start the reprocessing programme as soon as the machine has
been loaded with the wetted load items.
 Risk of damage due to solvents.
Solvents with a flash point above 21 °C can damage elastomers
and plastics. The machine could leak as a result of this.
Only load the machine with load items which are wetted with traces
of solvents at most.
Start the reprocessing programme as soon as the machine has
been loaded with the wetted load items.
 Risk of damage due to corrosion.
Chloride solutions, particularly hydrochloric acid, and ferrous ma-
terials that can rust or corrode cause corrosion on the stainless
steel of the machine and the load carrier.
Do not introduce any chloride solutions into the machine.
Do not introduce any ferrous materials that can rust or corrode into
the machine.
 Risk of infection.
Microbiological material, pathogens and facultative pathogens, and
genetically modified material can cause infections or environmental
damage.
Before reprocessing by machine, decide whether the load contam-
inated in this way needs to be sterilised.
