10.1.3 To Prevent Possible Injury or Equipment Damage
Do not use a corrosive solvent, abrasive detergent, or polish. Select a
cleaning/disinfecting agent that does not damage the plastics, aluminum, or carbon fiber.
Do not use strong detergents, abrasive cleaners, high alcohol concentration, or methanol
at any concentration.
Do not expose equipment parts to steam or high temperature sterilization.
Do not let liquids enter the internal parts of the equipment. Do not directly apply
cleaning sprays or liquids to the equipment. Always use a clean, lint-free cloth and apply
the spray or liquid to the cloth. If liquid enters the system, disconnect the electrical
supply and examine the system before returning it to use.
Caution:
Wrong cleaning methods can damage the equipment, decrease imaging performance,
or increase the risk of electrical shock.
Always follow instructions from the manufacturer of the product you use for cleaning and
disinfection. The instructions include the directions and precautions for the application and
contact time, storage, wash requirements, protective clothing, shelf life, and disposal.
Follow the instructions and use the product in the most safe and effective method.
