Notes on cleaning
56 10.06.2014
• 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) reduces the risk
of product contamination.
• Insufficient cleaning cannot be compensated for by doubling the
concentration of the disinfectants.
6.1.6 Use with disinfectant
WARNING
Fire hazard!
Alcohol-based disinfectants are highly flammable.
Fire, naked light or smoking ignites the disinfectant and can thus
cause fires.
¾ When disinfecting the machine, flames or naked lights are pro-
hibited.
¾ Smoking is prohibited.
¾ Observe the instructions of the disinfectant manufacturer.
WARNING
Health hazard!
Incorrect use of disinfectant can contaminate the product with
chemicals or decrease the effectiveness of disinfection.
This can pose serious health hazards for consumers.
¾ Follow the instructions of the disinfectant manufacturer.
¾ Only rinse after disinfection if required by disinfectant manufac-
turer.
¾ Observe regional hygiene regulations.
¾ Create a company cleaning guideline.
• For type of disinfectant refer to the "Care products table".
– For water-sensitive components only use alcohol-based disin-
fectant.
– For all other components use disinfectants which are for exam-
ple based on quaternary ammonium compounds.
