Operating theatre shoes
 Theatre shoes should be cleaned and disinfected in a machine
installed specifically for this purpose only. This is to ensure, for
example, that any fluff or soiling cannot settle inside the lumen of
hollow instruments.
Theatre shoes can only be reprocessed together with other items if
a risk assessment has been carried out by the user.
Theatre shoes made of heat-sensitive materials and insoles can be
chemo-thermally cleaned and disinfected at 60°C. To do this, a
special programme must be installed by the Miele Customer Service
Department and a special dispensing module for dispensing chemical
disinfecting agents must be retrofitted.
For information about the disinfection performance of chemo-thermal
procedures, contact the manufacturer of the relevant chemical
disinfecting agents.
Thermal disinfection (Theatre shoes programme) can be used if the
manufacturer of the theatre shoes confirms that they are
thermostable up to 80°C.
 Remove insoles before reprocessing theatre shoes.
Please equip the upper and lower basket carriers with the following
inserts for reprocessing theatre shoes:
- A 101 or A 102 with A 310 insert for theatre shoes up to size41.
- A 103 with A 308 insert for insoles up to size45.
- A 151 with A 307 insert for theatre shoes up to size48.
A large amount of fluff can build up in the machine when cleaning
theatre shoes. The filters in the wash cabinet should therefore be
checked regularly, and cleaned when necessary. See “Cleaning
and care”.
