Maintenance And Cleaning; Housing; Light Probes; Disposal - Ivoclar Vivadent bluephase C8 Manual Del Usuario

For reasons of hygiene, the use of a disposable protective
sleeve for each patient is recommended. Contaminated sur-
faces of the device as well as 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 hand-
piece, the handpiece holder and particularly the power pack
during cleaning (risk of electrical shock). Disconnect the
handpiece 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.

Maintenance and cleaning

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.

Disposal

The apparatus must not be disposed of in normal domestic
waste. Dispose of unserviceable polymerization lights
according to the corresponding legal requirements in your
country.
