•
Follow the instructions for use for the particular products and their manufacturer. Pay
attention to the exact dosage! We recommend the use of automated dosing instru-
ments.
•
Always prepare solutions with cold water in order to avoid the formation of vapours
which are mucous membrane irritants.
•
Wear gloves, in order to avoid direct skin contact.
•
Do not keep ready prepared surface disinfection solutions in open containers with float-
ing cleaning cloths. Be sure to cover all containers!
•
Use sealable bottles with pump dispensers for moistening the cleaning cloths.
•
Ventilate the room after the disinfection has been completed.
•
Disinfect by wiping; do not disinfect by spraying! When spraying, a large portion of the
disinfectant is released as spray and could be inhaled.
•
Furthermore, the wiping effect plays a significant role.
•
Do not use alcohols for the disinfection of large surfaces.
