MAINTENANCE - STORAGE - TRANSPORT
This device is maintenance-free.
Maintenance
Instrument should be transported only in its original packaging. In the event of transporting
via airlines, make sure to install the ventilation cap onto the connection port for the leak
tester. This opens the scope sheath to allow pressure equalization and guard against the
sheath bulging due to reduced atmospheric pressure. Refer to page 14.
Transport
Scope and accessories should be thoroughly cleaned, disinfected, and dried before storing.
Keep the instrument lying at or hanging with the insertion tube and the angulation tip
straight. Store instrument in transport case or hanging, with dust protection.
Light cable should be loosely coiled.
Storage area should be dry, well-ventilated, and maintain a temperature of 64-73ºF / 18-22ºC.
Storage
If transporting by airlines, scope must have
ventilation connector installed. This allows pressure
to equalize and avoids damage to insertion tube.
