Maintenance And Cleaning; Housing; Light Probes; Battery Contacts - Ivoclar Vivadent bluephase 20i Instrucciones De Uso

For reasons of hygiene, the use of a disposable protective
sleeve is recommended for each patient. Contaminated sur-
faces of the device as well as of the light probes and anti-
glare cones must be disinfected (e.g. FD333/Dürr Dental,
Incidin Liquid/Ecolab) or autoclaved before each use. Make
sure that no liquids or other foreign substances enter the
handpiece, charging base and particularly the power pack
during cleaning (risk of electrical shock). Disconnect the
charging base from the power source when cleaning it.

Housing

Wipe the handpiece and handpiece holder with a custom-
ary aldehyde-free disinfecting solution. Do not clean with
highly aggressive disinfecting solutions (e.g. solutions based
on orange oil or with an ethanol content of more than
50%), solvents (e.g. acetone), or pointed instruments, which
may damage or scratch the plastic. Clean dirty plastic parts
with a soap solution.

Light probes

Clean the light probe with a disinfectant and a soft cloth.
Carefully remove any possible material residue, such as
composite material, from the light probe with a fingernail
or a plastic spatula, for instance. Do not use sharp or point-
ed instruments, since they may scratch the surface of the
light probe and thus reduce light transmission. Light probes
and anti-glare cones may be autoclaved (e.g. 134 °C, 3 bar,
5 minutes). Check light probes for damage. If a light probe
is held against a light source and certain segments appear
black, then the glass fibres are broken. In this case, the light
probe has to be replaced with a new one.

Maintenance and cleaning

Battery contacts

For good conductivity at all times, keep the battery contacts
free from possible contamination (e.g. composite residue).
For this purpose, clean the affected contacts regularly with
disinfectant wipes (after each patient).

Disposal

The apparatus must not be disposed of in normal domestic
waste. Dispose of unserviceable batteries and polymeriza-
tion lights according to the corresponding legal require-
ments in your country. Batteries must not be incinerated.
