The service meter must be checked and reset even when the autoclave is being put into
operation for the first time. The service meter will be running even if the autoclave has
never been used. This is because the meter will begin to run at the date of production
which is stored in its memory. If the autoclave has been standing unused in its room of
use, or in a storage room, for some weeks or months, this time will also be counted by the
service meter. The “Two-year service interval” will then run out sooner than the actual time
that the autoclave is being used (if only a small number of sterilization cycles has been
run). The customer will then see the report “Please conduct service” earlier than actually
necessary. For this reason: Always reset the service meter when you set the autoclave
up for the first time, and when you service it later.
How to reset the service meter:
Follow the steps given below:
1. Switch off the power to the autoclave.
2. Press the buttons
them down. The following will appear in the display:
“MELAG Diagnosis analog inputs”.
3. Press the button
“MELAG Diagnosis Maintenance Data”.
4. Press the button “Program” once. The following will appear in the display:
“Service: …….” “Run cycles…..”
5. Press the button “Program” again. The following will appear in the display:
“ Maintenance Data Update?”
6. Press the button “Program” again to confirm and update the maintenance data.
7. Exit from the diagnosis program by pressing the START/STOP button twice (2 x).
