6.1 Filling of the unit
Shut the drain duct before filling the tank. (Turning knob for
draining of the tank into horizontal position (see section 4.6).
Fill the cleaning tank with a sufficient quantity of a suitable
cleaning liquid before switch-on.
The optimum filling level is approx. 2/3 of the tank volume.
The marked maximum filling level of the tank (not available on
S 10 / S 10 H) indicates the recommended filling level with
cleaning items in the bath (see also section 4 Illustration 4.4).
Ensure that the chosen cleaning agent is suitable for treatment
in an ultrasonic bath and observe the instructions on dosage
and the compatibility of the material
.
We recommend the use of the cleaning agents listed in section

Risk of fire and explosion!
Never use flammable liquids or solvents directly in an ultrasonic
cleaning bath.
Use the cleaning chemicals listed in section 8.3.
CAUTION
Ultrasonic activity increases the vaporisation of liquids and
creates a very fine mist which can catch fire on any ignition
source.
Observe the instructions on limitations of use given in section
8.1.
Risk of damage to the transducer tank!
Do not use any acid cleaning agents (pH value < 7) directly in
the stainless steel tank if the cleaning items or the
contamination of the cleaning items contain halogenides
(fluorides, chlorides or bromides). The same applies to NaCl
solutions.
Use the cleaning chemicals listed in section 8.3.
