Sterile Handle
Sterilize the handle utilizing steam at a minimum of 250°F (121°C) for at least
30 minutes in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ST46 (1993): Good hospital
practices, Steam sterilization and sterility assurance, or equivalent method.
Cleaning Hard to Clean Spots
To remove difficult spots or stains, we recommend that you use standard
household cleansers and a soft-bristled brush. To loosen heavy, dried-on soil,
you may first need to saturate the spot.
Disinfecting
When there is visible soilage and between patients, we recommend that you
disinfect the unit with a tuberculocidal disinfectant. (For customers in the US,
the disinfectant should be registered with the Environmental Protection
Agency.)
Dilute and use the disinfectant according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
