Disinfect the cushions of headphones between one patient and the
next, following the procedure described in CHAPTER 4
“Maintenance”.
The audiometer can generate tones at an intensity potentially
damaging to the patient. Take particular care to adjust the
intensity of the tone correctly before examinations.
DISPOSAL
Like all electronic devices, the Piccolo audiometer contains extremely small
quantities of certain hazardous substances such as cadmium or mercury. If
such substances are allowed to enter the normal waste disposal cycle without
suitable preliminary treatment, they can cause damage to the environment
and to health. All parts of the audiometer must therefore be disposed of
separately.
At the end of its life, dispose of the disused instrument through a civic waste
disposal and recycling facility, or return it to the reseller against the purchase
of an equivalent new instrument.
Separate waste collection and the subsequent operations of treatment,
recycling and disposal facilitate the manufacture of new devices from
recycled materials, limiting any negative impact on the environment and
public health that might otherwise derive from improper disposal.
CONFORMITY
The Piccolo audiometer is a class IIa medical device according to Annex IX
of the Medical Device Directive (MDD) 93/42/EEC as amended by directive
2007/47/EC.
Inventis Quality Management System is ISO 13485 certified.
