If kinked, straighten the tube. If the tube cannot be
straightened, remove it from the push-in fitting attached
to the Statim. Depress the collar on the fitting and with
the other hand pull firmly on the tube. Once the tube is
free of the fitting, cut the damaged section of tubing
away using a sharp instrument. Be sure that you leave
enough tube to reach the unit when you re-attach the
tube to the exhaust fitting. If the tube is too short to
remove a section, contact your SciCan dealer for
a replacement.
Make sure the compressor is working. To check,
remove the exhaust tube from the waste bottle.
Start the Air Drying Only Cycle, and place the free end
into a glass of water. If there is not a strong, steady
flow of bubbles, the compressor is not
functioning properly. Contact your SciCan dealer.
Record the CYCLE FAULT number. Wait a few minutes
and attempt another cycle before proceeding to the next
solution. Remove the cassette. Be careful. The metal
parts will be hot and the cassette will contain hot steam.
Inspect the cassette to ensure that the holes in the back
of the seal are perfectly aligned, and that the flexible lip
of the seal is completely free. Check the exhaust tube
for kinks or obstructions. If kinked, straighten the tube.
If the tube can not be straightened, remove it from the
push-in fitting attached to the Statim. Depress the
collar on the fitting and, with the other hand pull firmly
on the tube. Once the tube is free of the fitting, cut
the damaged section of tubing away using a sharp
instrument. Be sure that you leave enough tube to
reach the unit when you re-attach the tube to the
exhaust fitting. If the tube is too short to remove a
section, contact your SciCan dealer for a replacement.
Check that the Statim has not inadvertently been
exposed to any electrical interference.
Refer to the Installation section dealing with
Environmental Considerations. (Section 3.1)
Try running another cycle. If the problem persists,
record the cycle fault message number and contact
your dealer.
