The OCULUS Optikgeräte GmbH company offers a sterilization container
with a specially designed insert for keeping the BIOM® 5, optical
components and the adapter plate in place for optimum care during and
after sterilization
Do not use aggressive cleaning agents that contain chlorine or
solvents, nor abrasive or sharp-edged cleaning products to clean the
unit.
Always heed the product descriptions and directions for use of
products you use to disinfect.

Aesculap Sterilit i (JG600) oil spray
Aesculap Sterilit i (JG598) Instrument oil

If the moving parts are sluggish: After cleaning and prior to steriliza-
tion, treat all moving parts of the BIOM® 5 with a sterilizable, silicone
oil-free conditioning lubricant.
Remove any excess oil from the surfaces, as staining could otherwise
occur.
Clean and Sterilize
Cleaning materials: Damp cloth
Clean the BIOM® 5 with water immediately after use. This prevents
incrustations which can make complete sterilization more difficult
Always remove the optical system components before autoclaving. All
components of the BIOM® 5 listed in sect. 16, page 36 can be sterilized
in a steam autoclave (max. 134°C).
Attention
Risk of function impairment in association with the use of mineralized
water
If you use mineralized water, mineral deposits can form on the device and
impair its function.
Use only demineralized, filtered water for steam sterilization.
Risk of damage to the device if STERRAD® is used for sterilization
The use of STERRAD® for sterilization purposes can damage the BIOM® 5.
Do not use STERRAD® for sterilization purposes.
