is recommended. Flammable agents or solvents for cleaning
or sanitizing should be allowed to evaporate before use of the

using a mild detergent and water solution to wipe surface areas
only. Do not immerse unit in liquid or introduce liquid into the
cooling vents or RF cable areas.
The NovaSure disposable device is a sterile disposable device for
single-patient use only.
• Do not use if the packaging is opened or damaged.
• Do not reuse or re-sterilize the disposable device.
Do not sterilize any component of the NovaSure impedance
controlled endometrial ablation system.
