Arranging The Wash Items - Miele PLW 8615 Operating Instructions Manual

Arranging
the wash items
Only items which have been declared by their manufacturer as suit-
able for machine reprocessing may be processed. The manufac-
turer's specific reprocessing instructions must be observed.
 Contaminated items pose a health risk.
Contaminated items can result in various hazards to health, which
can lead to infections, poisoning, injuries, and more depending on
the type of contamination.
When working with contaminated items, ensure that all necessary
measures are taken to protect personnel.
Wear protective gloves and use suitable aids.
- Arrange the wash items so that wash water can access all surfaces.
This ensures that they get properly cleaned.
- Do not place wash items to be cleaned inside other pieces where
they may be concealed.
- Do not place wash items so close together that cleaning is ham-
pered.
- The interior of lumened wash items must be thoroughly flushed
through with wash water. Depending on the wash item, special rins-
ing fittings may be required for this, such as nozzles, irrigation
sleeves, or adapters.
- Ensure that wash items with long, narrow, hollow sections can be
flushed through properly before placing them in inserts or connect-
ing them to a rinsing fitting.
- Lumened instruments should be inverted and placed in the correct
mobile units, modules, and inserts to ensure that wash water can
flow in and out of them unrestricted.
- Deep-sided wash items should be placed at an angle to make sure
the wash water runs off them freely.
- Tall, narrow lumened instruments should be placed in the center of
the mobile units if they are not going to be sprayed directly. This
ensures the insides of the lumened instruments are more easily ac-
cessed by the water jets.
- Take apart any wash items which can be dismantled according to
the manufacturer's instructions and reprocess the individual parts
separately from each other.
- Lightweight wash items should be secured with a cover net to pre-
vent them from spinning around in the wash cabinet and blocking
the spray arms.
- Only reprocess small items and micro components in special in-
serts, mesh trays with lids, or mesh inserts.
- The spray arms must not be blocked by wash items which are too
tall or which hang down in their path.
