To stop an active SoClean cycle, simply press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. This action will immediately cancel any ongoing disinfection process.
Canceling an Active SoClean Disinfect Cycle
Stopping a SoClean cycle is a straightforward process, primarily managed through the device's control panel. Whether you need to halt a cycle for maintenance, reposition your equipment, or simply because you initiated it by mistake, the method remains the same.
Here's a step-by-step guide to stopping an active disinfection cycle:
- Locate the Power Button: On your SoClean device, identify the power button. This button typically controls the device's main functions and power state.
- Press and Hold: Once located, press and hold this power button continuously for 5 seconds.
- Confirmation: The active cycle will cease, and the device should return to an idle state. You may notice the illuminated icons on the control panel turning off, indicating that the device is no longer actively disinfecting.
This method is specifically designed to interrupt an active Disinfect Cycle, ensuring you have immediate control over your device's operation.
Understanding Your SoClean Control Panel
The SoClean 3 device communicates its status through seven (7) illuminated icons on its Control Panel. During normal operation and idle states, these icons are typically off, signaling that the device is ready for use or in a standby mode. When a disinfection cycle is active, certain icons may light up to indicate the ongoing process.
What Happens When a Cycle is Canceled?
Upon successfully canceling a cycle by pressing and holding the power button for 5 seconds, the SoClean device reverts to its idle state. This means:
- Cycle Interruption: The disinfection process immediately stops.
- Icon Status: The illuminated icons on the control panel that were active during the cycle will typically turn off, confirming the device is no longer in operation.
- Ready for Next Use: The device is then ready to be started again when needed, or it will remain in standby until the next scheduled or manually initiated cycle.
It's important to understand this process to maintain optimal control and effective use of your SoClean device.
