10-5-7-2 Basic Probe Care

The Basic User Manual provides a complete description of probe care, maintenance, cleaning and

disinfection. Ensure that you are completely familiar with the proper care of GE probes.

Ultrasound probes can be easily damaged by improper handling. Review the Basic User Manual of

Voluson® 730Pro / 730ProV for more details. Failure to follow these precautions can result in serious

injury and equipment damage. Failure to properly handle or maintain a probe may also void its warranty.

Any evidence of wear indicates the probe cannot be used.

Do a visual check of the probe pins and system sockets before plugging in a probe.

10-5-7-3 Basic Probe Cleaning

Refer to the Basic User Manual of Voluson® 730Pro / 730ProV for details on cleaning.

NOTE: To help protect yourself from blood borne diseases, wear approved disposable gloves. These are made

of nitrile derived from vegetable starch to prevent allergic latex reactions.

NOTE: Failure to follow the prescribed cleaning or disinfection procedures will void the probe’s

warranty. DO NOT soak or wipe the lens with any product not listed in the User Manual. Doing

so could result in irreparable damage to the probe. Follow care instructions that came with the

probe.

NOTE: Disinfect a defective probe before you return it. Be sure to tag the probe as being disinfected.
