20 Cleaning and disinfecting the MDSm
To avoid electrical shock, remove the system and extra battery from the MDSm and
unplug from power supply before cleaning.
To avoid injury, always use protective eyewear and gloves when performing
cleaning and disinfecting procedures.
To avoid infection, if a pre-mixed disinfectant solution is used, observe the solution
expiration date, and ensure that the date has not passed.
To avoid infection, the level of disinfection required for a product is dictated by the
type of tissue it contacts during use. Ensure that the solution strength and duration
of contact are appropriate for the equipment. For information, see the disinfectant
label instructions and the recommendations of the Association for Professionals in
Infection Control and Epidemiology (APIC) and FDA.
Use only recommended cleaners or disinfectants on surfaces. Immersion-type
disinfectants are not approved for use on surfaces.
The exterior surface of the MDSm can be cleaned and disinfected using a
recommended cleaner or disinfectant.
1 Remove the system, unplug the power supply, and detach any cables.
2 Clean the surfaces using a soft cloth lightly dampened in a mild soap or
detergent cleaning solution.
Apply the solution to the cloth rather than the surface.
3 Wipe the surfaces with the disinfecting solution. Theracide disinfectant is
recommended.
4 Air dry or towel dry with a clean cloth.
