1.9. Waste disposal of the equipment
This instrument is an in-vitro medical device and it is usually installed in a laboratory where specimens and
other biological tissues are present. For your safety, it is therefore required to clean and disinfect before
entering in contact with it. You must also wear gloves when operating the system.
In case of return it is required that the unit is cleaned and disinfected before sending it back to Milestone.
Non-disinfected devices will be no longer accepted and you will be contacted to pay the relative disinfection
cost.
International health rules require that shipments of biohazard materials are not done in standard packages
(risk of sanctions).
Before doing any operation disconnect the power supply.
Do not use direct or high-pressure water to clean the instrument.
