collar and gently tug on tip before using to ensure
that tip is securely locked into socket.

contamination before autoclaving.
3)
Autoclave tip at 132° C (270° F) for ten
minutes.

recommended that the Air/Water Syringe be bagged
with a disposable, single-use plastic sleeve between
each patient use.
Avoid damage to the syringe by removing the tip when
closing the ADU-12DCEB case for transportation.
