With the leakage tester connected, immerse the endoscope in the water and
observe for approximately 30 seconds while angulating the bending section.
Confirm that there is no location on the endoscope from which a continuous
series of air bubbles emerges.
6.
Remove the endoscope from the basin with the leakage tester attached.
7.
Turn the maintenance unit or the light source OFF.
8.
Disconnect the leakage tester from the maintenance unit or the light source.
Always disconnect the leakage tester connector from the
light source or maintenance unit before disconnecting the
leakage tester’s connector cap from the venting connector.
Failure to do this will not allow the endoscope to
depressurize properly. This may damage the endoscope.

Wait 30 seconds, or until the covering of the bending section contracts to its
pre-expansion size. Disconnect the leakage tester’s connector cap from the
venting connector.
10.
Thoroughly dry the leakage tester.
