  Maintaining Your Lamira 

 

 

To reduce the risk of infection, illness, or injury from contamination or improper use, it is important to complete the following 2 

steps: 

 

1)

 

Rinse and clean the Handset including the Aerosol Head before first use and right after each use.  (see Section F) Do not 

wash the Controller, Connection Cord, or A/C Power Supply.  Use clear liquid soap made for washing dishes to clean the Handset.  

Do not use liquid dish soaps that are white or antibacterial liquid dish soaps because these may contain additives harmful to the 

Aerosol Head. 

2)

 

Disinfect the Handset every day (see Section G).  

 

 

 

Do not put the Handset or the Aerosol Head in the microwave oven. 

 

Do not try to clean the Handset or Aerosol Head in a dishwasher. 

 

Do not try to clean the Handset or the Aerosol Head with brushes or abrasives.
