Infection by contaminated cleaning pads.
Death or serious injury can result.
• After usage, cleaning pads must be treated as a potential source of
infection.
• Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, that is, gloves,
protective clothing, safety glasses, and mask.
• Pay attention to the manufacturer's information regarding the gloves'
compatibility with the materials and liquids used.
Note: The size and exact centering of the drop is not critical. If there is
a drop visible on the platform, the trigger solution dispensing is
adequate. If there is no drop visible on the platform, call your Siemens
Healthcare Diagnostics Service.
