6.1.3 Instructions on the handling of cleansers
WARNING
Chemical burn hazard!
Acidic cleansers are caustic. Caustic effects are NOT noticed im-
mediately.
Contact with the skin can cause burns.
¾ Wear the prescribed personal protective equipment when han-
dling cleansers.
¾ Observe the manufacturer's instructions.
• For type of cleanser, refer to the "Care products table".
• Always follow the instructions for use from the cleanser manufac-
turer.
• The quantity of cleanser is not the decisive factor for successful
cleaning.
– Applying amounts in excess of the proper dosage does not im-
prove or accelerate cleaning efficiency, but only hinders the re-
quired rinsing off of the cleanser.
• Dried cleanser residues make cleaning more difficult and pro-
longed.
– Even the smallest residues can inhibit the effect of the disinfec-
tion.
– Check by measuring the pH factor of the post-rinsing water.
• Regular checks of cleaning (i.e. by contact tests) reduce the risk of
product contamination.
• Insufficient cleaning cannot be compensated for by doubling the
concentration of the disinfectants.
6.1.4 Instructions on the handling of disinfectants
Incorrect use of disinfectant can contaminate the product with chemi-
cals or decrease the effectiveness of disinfection. This can pose seri-
ous health hazards for consumers.
• Always follow the instructions for use from the disinfectant manu-
facturer.
• Only rinse or wipe off after disinfection, if this is required by the
disinfectant manufacturer.
• Always observe the applicable hygiene regulations.
