Warning
•
When choosing cleaning
agents and disinfectants,
make sure that: They are
suitable for cleaning or
disinfecting instruments. You
use a disinfectant with
proven efficacy (e.g. with
VAH/DGHM or FDA
certification or CE mark) and
that the disinfectant is
compatible with the cleaning
agent. The chemicals used
are compatible with the
accessories.
•
Combined cleaning/
disinfection products should
only be used if the
instruments are only slightly
contaminated (no visible
contamination/remnants).
Comply with the
concentrations and contact
times specified by the
manufacturers of the
cleaning agents and
disinfectants, as well as their
instructions regarding the
intensity of subsequent
rinsing.
•
Use only freshly prepared
solutions, water that is sterile
or has a low microbe content
(< 10 cfu/ml) and a low
endotoxin content (< 0.25
EU/ml, e.g. purified water
(PW/HPW)), and filtered, oil-
free air for drying.
