CLEANING HANDPIECES, FOOTSWITCH AND POWER CABLES
After each procedure, or at least once a day, it is suggested that the handpieces and cables be
thoroughly cleaned and sterilized.
Clean the outer surface of the handpieces and cables with an antiseptic soap, rinse with water and
sterilize with a chemical sterilization solution.
Caution: No chemicals or cleaners should ever be used inside or allowed to get into the scaler
handpiece. Flush the handpiece thoroughly and completely with clean water.
The footswitch and power cables should be cleaned regularly by spraying a fine mist of sterilization or
cleaning solution on the cables. It should remain on the cables for the length of time recommended by
the manufacturer. Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and dry the cables completely.
