BiliSoft Cable Connector and Fiberoptic Lenses
CAUTION:
Never immerse the fiberoptic lenses in liquid.
CAUTION:
Do not autoclave or gas sterilize the fiberoptic light pad, fiberoptic cable or
fiberoptic cable connector.
CAUTION:
Exposing the light input end of the fiberoptic cable connector to strong
cleaning solutions, alcohol, or ultraviolet light can cause premature breakdown
of the fiberoptic lenses. Cleaning solutions that discolor the lenses, such as
iodine solutions, will reduce the pad’s light output. Do not place the fiberoptic
cable connector in direct sunlight. Do not use iodine solutions, strong acids,
strong alkali, or bleach solutions to clean the fiberoptic cable connector.
Clean the fiberoptic cable connector using a mild detergent
solution. Never use an abrasive cleaner on the fiberoptic
cable connector. If disinfection is required, aqueous
solutions, which are both hospital disinfectants and
microbactericides, may be used sparingly, minimizing their
exposure to the fiberoptic lenses. Apply the cleaning
solutions with a clean soft cloth. Do not saturate. Remove
any cleaning residue from the fiberoptic lenses with a clean
damp soft cloth soaked with water only. Do not spray
cleaner directly on the fiberoptic cable connector (see
illustration, right). See table on this page for a list of approved
cleaners.
The following table lists approved disinfecting solutions (minimize exposure to fiberoptic lenses):
