12. Cleaning and maintenance
12.1 Checking the water level
Labormat devices are hot water devices
which release steam during the spray
process and when the lid is open. This
lowers the water level and necessi-
tates checking the water level on a
daily basis.
If the water level reaches the level
of the heating cover (6), it is im-

Important: Always pull the mains
plug before opening the device.
The overheating protection safety
switch (21) is located on the control
panel (7) and is secured with a pro-
tective cap.
If reactivation is necessary, release the

In order to obtain consistently good

models, the wax dissolved in water
should be removed daily.
Do this by setting the temperature con-
troller (19/22) to 0 °C or switching off
the device and allowing it to cool (ide-
ally overnight).
The wax dissolved in the water auto-
matically collects as a layer on the sur-
face as the water cools down. After
removing the flask baskets and support
