residues in a glass filled with water.
5. Take off the suction cannulae and rinse out the suction hoses with
clean water.
If the treatment center is equipped with thermodisinfectable suction
hoses, thermal disinfection can be performed after cleaning, see
"Thermodisinfecting the suction hoses" [ → 197].
Assembly is performed in reverse order. Grease the O-rings (A) before
reconnecting the suction hoses. For greases, see "Care and cleaning

Amalgam is a mercury compound that is hazardous to water.
➢ Do not dispose of amalgam residues in a sink.
➢ Collect amalgam residues e.g. in a closed container with water.
Dispose of amalgam residues, e.g. when replacing the amalgam
rotor by filling the amalgam residues into the amalgam rotor or when
emptying the sediment container.

If the surfaces of the hoses have become sticky from disinfectants,
clean them with a commercially available dishwashing liquid and then
powder them with a light coat of talcum if necessary.
