4. Care instructions
4.1 General information
Cleaning and disinfecting the medical devices serves to protect the patient, user, third par-
ties, and maintain the integrity of the devices.
The product design and materials used make it impossible to define an upper limit on max.
feasible treatment cycles. The service life of medical devices is determined by their function
and careful handling.
Before return for repair, defective products must have undergone the prescribed reproces-
sing procedure.
If a reusable device shows signs of material deterioration, it should no longer be used and
should be disposed of according to the procedures described in the disposal/warranty sec-
tions.
4.2 Cleaning and disinfection
To avoid possible cross-contamination, diagnostic instruments and their handles must be
cleaned and disinfected regularly.
The diagnostic instruments together with their handles can be cleaned on the outside using
a damp cloth (if necessary, moistened with alcohol) until they are visibly clean. Wipe with
disinfectant (e.g. disinfectant Bacillol AF from Bode Chemie GmbH (time 30s)) only accor-
ding to the instructions of use of the respective manufacturer of disinfectant. Only disin-
fectants with proven effectiveness according to national guidelines should be used. After
disinfecting, wipe the instruments with a damp cloth to remove potential residue.
Please make sure that the cloth is moistened but NOT wet, so that no moisture penetrates
the openings in the diagnostic instrument or its handle.
• Make sure that glass and lenses are only cleaned with a dry and clean cloth.
The diagnostic instruments are not sterile devices; they cannot be sterilized
Never place the instrument heads and handles in liquids!
Make sure that no liquids penetrate the housing interior!
