7.9. Cleaning, Disinfection,
Sterilization
WARNINGS
• The components need to be disinfected
and/or sterilized (only for contra-angle)
prior to first use and in between each
case!
• Do not place the micromotor or any other
accessories in an autoclave unit or ultrasonic
tank. Only the contra-angle may be sterilized
(see separate contra-angle operating in-
structions).
• Do not immerse the device in ultrasonic
cleaners.
• The plastic enclosure is not sealed, do
not use any liquid or spray directly on the
console, especially on the monitor or near
the electrical sockets.
Exterior Surfaces
Wipe the surface of the device (panel interface
and the housing), the micromotor and its cable
with a clean cloth moistened lightly with a
non-aggressive disinfectant.
Use only disinfectants with antibacterial, fungicide
and viricide power and which comply with the
valid requirements of the national regulatory
body. It is recommended to use aldehyde-free
disinfectants, for example the “Minuten Spray
Classic” of ALPRO
®
MEDICAL GmbH and the
“Mikrozid AF liquid” of Schülke&Mayr.
Contra-Angle
To sterilize the VDW Endo 6:1 contra-angle, refer to
the separate contra-angle operating instructions.
