Cleaning
SHOCK HAZARD:
Before cleaning, maintenance, or parts replacement, unplug the
charger unit from its power source. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury or equipment damage.
SHOCK HAZARD:
Do not expose the unit to excessive moisture that would allow for
liquid pooling. Personal injury or equipment damage could occur.
CAUTION:
Do not use harsh cleansers/detergents, such as scouring pads
and heavy duty grease removers, or solvents, such as toluene,
xylene, and acetone. Equipment damage could occur.
If there is no visible soilage with possible body fluids, clean the unit
with alcohol or a medical instrument detergent and warm wet cloth or
gauze sponge. If disinfection is desired, use a disinfectant as explained
in “Disinfecting” on page 6-2. Do not submerge unit in water or hold
under running water to rinse.
Steam Cleaning
Do not use any steam cleaning device on the unit. Do not autoclave the
unit. Excessive moisture can damage mechanisms or electronics in this
unit.
Cleaning Difficult to Access Areas
Do not attempt to disassemble the Jaundice Meter or base for cleaning.
Wipe exterior surfaces only. To remove difficult spots or stains, use a
soft bristle brush and alcohol or a medical instrument detergent. To
loosen heavy, dried-on soil, saturate the spot with a damp gauze sponge
or cloth. Disinfecting is preferable in cases of contamination (visible).
