Precautions for Use

To prevent batteries from deteriorating, it is recommended to remove them from the handle when the instrument is unused for a prolonged period or stored under damp conditions.

Maintenance

After each use:

  • The blades must be cleaned, pre-disinfected and sterilized by steam autoclave (caution, repeated sterilization decreases the quality of the light transmitted by the fibres).
  • The handle must be cleaned and disinfected. Use a detergent/disinfectant for surfaces/non-invasive medical equipment. Prepare use-solution in concentration required. Always read the label and product information before use. Do not mix the with other products. Make sure to wet surfaces completely, use a wipe or towel, keep them wet for the whole exposure time.
