5-2 Maintenance
Cleaning
The procedure in this section keeps the MX40 and its accompanying patient
cable clean and provides protection against infectious agents and
bloodborne pathogens. Both the outside and the inside of the MX40 battery
compartment and the patient cable must be kept free of dirt, dust, and
debris.
Caution
After use, the MX40 and accessories must be cleaned as per the instructions
contained herein. Use only the recommended cleaners and disinfectants
listed in the table below. Others may cause damage (not covered by
warranty), degrade performance, reduce product lifetime, or cause safety
hazards.
Note — Sterilization of the MX40 has been qualified using the STERRAD
100NX System. For more information and instruction on sterilizing the
MX40, please contact your Steris representative. The alternative Steris V-pro
process using hydrogen peroxide vapor is also acceptable.
Note — Single-Patient-Use leadsets are intended to be disposed of when
use is complete. They are not to be re-used and are not designed to be
cleaned using any of the materials listed below.
Note — The MX40 Battery Adapter Tray requires routine inspection and
will require replacement when visible signs of wear are present, including
cracks, bends, crimping, or curling that can prevent disposable batteries
from remaining securely in the tray. It is recommended that the MX40
Battery Adapter Tray be replaced every 12 months or when visible wear is
recognized.
Perform the following steps to clean the MX40 and the
patient cable of visible surface contamination.
Note — when cleaning, the use of protective gloves is encouraged.
