Preparing sterility
6.4.1 Attaching asepsis caps
For sterile use, the system can be equipped with resterilizable products. The asepsis sets available from
ZEISS contain various caps that can be sterilized in autoclaves.
Risk of infection caused by contaminated asepsis caps and drapes
• Only use sterile asepsis accessories and drapes suitable for the system
• Clean, disinfect and sterilize asepsis accessories before each use. This
also applies to the first use after delivery.
6.4.2 Attaching the drapes
To ensure sterile covering of the system, it is also possible to use the single-use drapes (M/N: 306025-
0000-000).
The steps of attaching the drapes are as follows:
Hang a rubber band around
one side of the handgrip, then
twist and stretch the rubber
band toward the other side.
Secure the other end of the
rubber band as shown
above.
Make sure there is enough
slack in the drapes to allow
easy operation of Varioskop,
handgrip and other controls.
Hang the second rubber band
on the locking screw and
stretch it sideward.
Wind the rubber band
around the bottom of the
OPMI.
Secure the other end of the
rubber band on the locking
screw.
