5. Maintenance

5.1 Cleaning the Cassette

Keeping the Statim cassette clean is good clinical practice and assists in the function of the
unit. SciCan recommends that the interior surface be cleaned at least once a week. Use
dishwashing soap or a mild detergent that does not contain chlorine. Scrub the inside of the
cassette with a cleaning pad designed for use with Teflon™ coated surfaces. After scouring,
rinse thoroughly with water to remove all traces of the detergent. Cleaning the inside of your
cassette is very important if you regularly sterilize lubricated instruments. Coating the entire
inside surface with STAT-DRI drying agent induces water to form an even coat on the inside
surface, without beading. The water in contact with the hot cassette surfaces also evaporates
much more efficiently. Spotting is minimized and instruments dry much better. STAT-DRI
should be applied every 10 cycles, and after every cassette cleaning.

5.2 Cleaning the Water Reservoir Filter

This water reservoir filter should be cleaned at least once a week or when required. The filter
can easily be removed and cleaned by placing the filter upside down under running water
to wash away the particles until clean, and then placed back into the reservoir opening. If a
replacement water reservoir filter is required, order part number 01-109300S.

5.3 Cleaning the Reservoir

Check the reservoir for dirt or particles. The reservoir may be cleaned by draining followed
by cleaning and rinsing with steam process distilled water ONLY. Use of chemicals or
cleaning agents is not reccommended and could cause the unit damage.

5.4 Cleaning the Exterior Surfaces

Use a soft cloth moistened with soap and water to clean all exterior surfaces. Do not use
harsh cleaning chemicals or disinfectants.

5.5 Changing the Statim 2000S Air Filter

The filter should be replaced every six months in order to maintain an adequate supply of
clean air during the air drying cycle.
