INSTRUCTIONS FOR CLEANING LL100
The Wallach LL100 Cryosurgical Freezer can be disinfected by wiping down with commercial disinfectant. This wipe down
procedure can include the black plastic handle and white silicone gas hoses. Other methods involving heat, fluid (cold soak-
ing) or steam are not recommended. The Cryofreezer holder must be sterilized after each procedure.
CARE of CONSOLE
Consoles must never be sterilized. Consoles can be wiped down with an appropriate disinfectant. Prevent fluids from
accumulating on the surface, or from spilling into the internal mechanism.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR HIGH LEVEL DISINFECTION of INSULATION PROBE
The white insulation probe which accepts the cryosurgical tip could have mucous membrane contact and should,
therefore, be disinfected "by wrapping with a cloth soaked in a high-level disinfectant to allow the recommended contact
time. After disinfection, the probe should be rinsed with tap water and dried before use. As with other high-level
disinfection procedures, proper cleaning of probes is necessary to ensure the success of the subsequent disinfection."
