Principle Ultrasonic cleaning is based on the cavitation eect, caused by the vibration of high- frequency ultrasonic waves in the liquid. As microscopic bubbles are formed, these implode and cause cavitation. This cavitation creates an intense scrubbing action on the surface of the item being cleaned. The bubbles are small enough to penetrate microscopic crevices, cleaning them thoroughly and consistently. Ultrasonic cleaning is extremely eective in removing dirt and grime, which would normally require tedious manual cleaning. Use an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a wide variety of instruments and mechanical parts, returning them to almost brand new condition without damage to delicate parts. General operation

1. Open the lid and ll the tank with water. Running the cleaner without water will

damage the appliance. Do not exceed the MAX mark.

2. Put the item to be cleaned in the water and make sure it is completely immersed.

3. Close the lid and connect the cleaner to the mains. Press the on-o switch to

switch on the cleaner. The cleaner will start the cleaning process. The cleaner will automatically switch o after 5minutes of cleaning. Press the on-o switch to switch o the cleaning process prematurely.

4. Disconnect the cleaner from the mains. Open the lid and take out the cleaned item.

Finally, empty the tank and wipe dry. Cleaning Methods General Cleaning Use clear water for general cleaning. The object should be completely immersed. However, the water should not exceed the maximum ll level. Thorough Cleaning In order to obtain better results, you may add a few drops of universal detergent. We recommend using commercial dishwashing detergent – preferably without any lipid- replenishing substances (balm). Partial Cleaning For partial cleaning of larger objects, use the cleaner with its lid open. Make sure not to touch the liquid during operation! Ultra-Cleaning When items require extensive cleaning, use the thorough cleaning procedure rst, refresh the water and repeat until the items are cleaned to satisfaction.
