Connection of the water bottle assembly, suction tube, and irrigation tube (OF - B113)
Warning
• Use only sterile water in the water bottle assembly. Failure to do so may pose a risk of
infection.
• Do NOT use defoaming agents in the water bottle assembly. These agents attach to the
internal lumen of the air/ water channel and may block the channel and /or damage the
endoscope. They are also extremely difficult to remove during subsequent cleaning and
can interfere with proper endoscope reprocessing.
Caution
Connect the suction tube of the suction source firmly to the suction nipple. Failure to do
so may result in disconnection of the suction tube during use and pose a risk of cross
contamination to the user as a result of reflux or dispersal of patient’s body fluids.
Note
Turn off the air/ water feeding pump of the video processor beforehand.
1. Attach the water bottle assembly correctly according to the IFU of the video processor.
2. Insert the air/ water connector of the water bottle assembly into the air/ water port of the endoscope
until it clicks.
Figure 3.42
Note
Failure to connect the water bottle assembly correctly not only lowers the air/ water feeding
function, but may also cause insufficient cleaning of the objective lens.
