• Place heavier instruments on the bottom of containers.
Do not place heavy instruments on top of delicate
instruments.
• For instruments with concave surfaces, such as
curettes, place instrument with the concave surface
facing downward to facilitate draining.
Automated Cleaning Instructions
• Clean in a validated washer disinfector using the
"INSTRUMENTS" cycle and a pH neutral cleaning
agent intended for use in automated cleaning. Effective
automated cleaning can be achieved using the following
parameters: two cold water pre-washes (minimum
hold of two minutes each); a hot water enzyme wash
(minimum hold of 4 minutes); followed by a hot water
pH neutral detergent wash (minimum hold 3 minutes at
60°C); a hot water rinse (minimum time 20 seconds); a
thermal rinse (minimum hold of 1 minute at 82.2°C) and
dry (minimum hold 5 minutes at 95°C).
• After automated cleaning, proceed to inspection,
instructions below.

MANUAL CLEANING

Cleaning Instructions
• Prepare an enzymatic cleaning solution in accordance
to the manufacturer's instructions.
• Soak soiled instruments for a minimum of 10 minutes.
Do not exceed 30°C.
• When cleaning, fully immerse the instrument in the
cleaning solution to avoid aerosol generation. Use
a soft bristle brush to remove all traces of blood
and debris; pay close attention to any hard to reach
areas, textured surfaces, or crevices. When cleaning
Instruments with cannulations or lumens (i.e. tubes),
or holes, use a tight-fitting, soft, non-metallic cleaning
brush or pipe cleaner to scrub the cannula, lumen,
or hole. Push in and out, using a twisting motion to
remove debris. Use a syringe filled with enzymatic
cleaning solution to flush hard to reach internal
areas. When cleaning articulating instruments, (those
with moveable parts), brush with a soft non-metallic
bristle brush to remove all traces of blood and debris.
Pay close attention to threads, crevices, seams,
and any hard to reach areas. Actuate any moveable
mechanisms, such as hinged joints, box locks, or
spring-loaded features, to free trapped blood and
debris. If the components of the instrument can be
retracted, retract or open the part while cleaning the
area. For instruments with flexible shafts, flex the
instrument under the cleaning solution. Rinse the
instrument thoroughly with warm water.
• Ultrasonically clean the instrument for 10 minutes in
neutral pH detergent, prepared in accordance with
the manufacturer's instructions. Rinse the instrument
thoroughly with warm water.
Rinsing Instructions
Rinse the instrument thoroughly with filtered water at
38–49°C, agitate for a minimum of 1 minute; repeat rinse
at least two additional times. When rinsing, pay particular
attention to flush the cannulations, lumens, or holes with
warm tap water. Also pay particular attention to internal
areas and moveable parts. Actuate moveable parts
while rinsing. If the components of the instrument can be
retracted, retract or open the part while rinsing the area.
