Cleaning

All of the incubator chamber walls are stainless steel.
Clean the interior of the incubator regularly to keep the
stainless steel from corroding.
The exterior of the unit is painted metal and plastic. Clean
the exterior with warm water or a mild cleaning solution.
Follow these guidelines when cleaning the unit:
• Unplug the unit, leave the door open, and allow
the incubator to cool before cleaning.
• Remove the drip tray from inside the chamber.
• Clean all surfaces and the drip tray with mild
detergent (such as dishwashing detergent) and
warm water.
• If radioactive materials have been used, clean
the incubator using an appropriate cleaner in an
approved manner.
• Do not scrub any surface with steel wool. Steel
wool leaves small metal particles behind that will
rust, causing the surface to look rusty.
• Where there is a heavy coating of residue on
the stainless surfaces, or where there is evi-
dence that corrosion is beginning, use a stain-
less steel cleaner.
• Rinse and wipe all surfaces with clean water
and allow to air dry.
