3.1.4.1
Sterilization Warnings,
Precautions and Notes
WARNING: The use of disinfecting solu-
tions for an exterior instrument wipe will
not sterilize the equipment.
1.
Do not sterilize equipment with Ethylene
Oxide (EtO).
2.
Never sterilize any handpiece in a Washer/
Sterilizer, STERIS System, STERRAD
System, Abtox Plazlyte™ or comparable
sterilization methods.
3.
Do not sterilize handpieces in cold ster-
ilants like CIDEX.
4.
Do Not “Peel Pack” handpieces or attach-
ments for sterilization. Sterilization in a
sealed pouch traps moisture which, over
time, can cause internal corrosion of the
handpiece.
5.
ALWAYS lubricate the appropriate attach-
ments prior to sterilization. See “3.1.3
Attachment Lubricating Instructions”
on page 22.
6.
Do not run handpieces while warm. Allow
adequate time for cooling prior to surgery.
Do not immerse in liquid or cover with a
damp cloth to cool. Cool by exposure to
room temperature.
NOTES:
1.
The following guidelines do not
guarantee that the device is sterile after
the procedure. Your institution is still
responsible for the normal sterility
assurance validation.
2.
Additional drying time may be required
for complete heat and moisture dissipa-
tion. Operation of a handpiece that is not
completely cool or dry may decrease per-
formance and/or reliability.
3.
Sterilization validation is based on AAMI
guidelines (Association for the Advance-
ment of Medical Instrumentation).
