5 Care and cleaning instructions for the practice team
Sirona Dental Systems GmbH
Vacuum system
Operating Instructions TENEO
Rinsing out the cleaning agent and disinfectant
1.
Following the cleaning process, pour at least 1 liter of water into the
cuspidor bowl.
ª
The water is aspirated, thus preventing any disinfectant residues from
remaining in the suction hoses.
2.
When the aspiration process has been completed, pull off the hoses.
Place the suction hoses in their holders.
3.
Remove the cleaning adapter
(B)
and insert the gold trap
(A)
.
If the treatment center is equipped with a third suction hose, repeat the above
procedure.
If the water unit is equipped with a wet suction device, the filter insert of the
wet suction device should be cleaned once a month after disinfecting the
vacuum system; see "Cleaning the filter insert of the wet suction device".
5.4.4
Cleaning and disinfecting the suction hoses
The hoses of the spray aspirator, the saliva ejector and the surgical suction
device as well as the connection hose to the water unit can be pulled off for
rinsing under running water.
Filter inserts are inserted between the suction hoses and the assistant
element to filter out solid particles. Depending on the treatment involved, it
may also periodically be necessary to remove the trapped solid particles (e.g.
amalgam) from the collector due to a decrease in the suction power.
Amalgam residues
The outside of the suction hoses can be disinfected by spraying or wiping.
Thermodisinfectable hoses are available as special equipment; see
Thermodisinfection of suction hoses [
Wear gloves
If the treatment center is equipped with a third suction hose, the following
instructions must be performed analogously.

CAUTION: Amalgam residues must not enter the public sewage
system.
Amalgam is a mercury compound that is hazardous to water.
¾
Do not dispose of amalgam residues in a sink.
¾
Collect amalgam residues e.g. in a closed container with water. Dispose
of amalgam residues, e.g. when replacing the amalgam rotor by filling the
amalgam residues into the amalgam rotor or when emptying the
sediment container.
NOTE: Powdering suction hoses with talcum
If the surfaces of the hoses have become sticky from disinfectants, clean them
with a commercially available dishwashing liquid and then powder them with a
light coat of talcum if necessary.

NOTE:
Wear gloves when performing the following work.
