WARNING: Always turn the device o
via the switch and disconnect it from the
electrical network before performing the

against penetration of liquids. Do not spray
liquids directly onto the surface of the device.
CAUTION: Do not clean the device
console and the foot pedal under running tap
water.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the device
console and the foot pedal in liquids and/or

4.1.2 Materials Required
• Clean, soft cloths with low ber-release;
• Detergent solution (pH 6-9).
CAUTION: If you wish to disinfect, we
recommend that you use water-based

true for chemical products such as acetone
and alcohol.
