270 °F/275 °F
*Aesculap has validated the above sterilization cycle and has the data on file. The validation was accomplished in an
Aesculap sterile container cleared by FDA for the sterilization and storage of these products. Other sterilization cycles
may also be suitable, however individuals or hospitals not using the recommended method are advised to validate
any alternative method using appropriate laboratory techniques. Use an FDA cleared accessory to maintain sterility
after processing, such as a wrap, pouch, etc.
Storage
►
Store sterile products in germ-proof packaging, protected from dust, in a dry, dark, temperature-controlled area.

Electromagnetic Environment - Guidelines
The system uses HF energy exclusively for its
internal function. Therefore, its RF emissions are
very low and are not likely to cause any inter-
ference in nearby electronic equipment.

The system is suitable for use in all facilities
including those in a residential area, which are
directly connected to the public power supply.
