Cleaning and Disinfecting  
BiliSoft Light Box 
 
WARNING: 
Make sure the light box power cord is disconnected from the power source 
before cleaning and that the unit is completely dry before using it.  
 
WARNING: 
Never immerse the light box in liquid. Water will short circuit electronic 
circuitry, causing permanent damage. 
 
CAUTION:   
Use the cleaning solution sparingly on a cloth when cleaning the exterior of the 
light box. Do not saturate the cloth - excessive solution may flow into the light 
box causing damage to internal components. 
 
CAUTION: 
Do not autoclave or gas sterilize the Light Box. 
 
1.  Unplug the power cord.  
 
2.  Clean the outside of the light box using a mild detergent solution. Aqueous solutions, 
which are both hospital disinfectants and microbactericides, may be used. Do not 
allow liquids to seep into the housing. Apply the cleaning solutions with a clean cloth 
or sponge. Always dry the parts with a clean damp soft cloth to avoid scratches and 
remove cleaner residue. Do not spray cleaner directly on the unit. Take caution if 
wiping inside of the fiberoptic light pad assembly port not to damage the LED shutoff 
switch.  See table on page 7-4 for a list of approved cleaners.
