ENGLISH

The Provox Vega Plug is intended to be used with Provox
Vega voice prostheses only.
Check the device integrity prior to each use by pulling
the strap (Fig. 1).
Precaution
• The device is intended for single patient use only. Reuse
in another patient may cause cross contamination.

Cleaning and disinfection

Clean the Provox Vega Plug after each use, or if it is removed
during use according to Fig. 7-10.
DO NOT use any water other than drinking water to
clean and rinse the device.
Disinfect the Provox Vega Plug at least once a day if it
is removed (Fig. 11) with one of the following methods:
• Ethanol 70% for 10 minutes
• Isopropylalcohol 70% for 10 minutes
• Hydrogenperoxide 3% for 60 minutes
CAUTION: DO NOT clean or disinfect by any other method
as this might cause product damage and injury.
If the Provox Vega Plug looks dirty or has air dried in an
area with a risk of contamination the device should be both
cleaned and disinfected before use. A risk of contamination
could exist if the device has been dropped on the floor or if
it has been in contact with a pet, someone with a respiratory
infection, or any other gross contamination.
During hospitalization it is important to both clean and
disinfect the Provox Vega Plug after use but also before
use since there is an increased risk of infection and
contamination. In a hospital it is better to use sterile water
for cleaning and rinsing, rather than drinking water.
