telescope shaft or eyepiece. Do not use
a telescope that shows signs of
damage.
If it is necessary to dispose of the
telescope, discard in accordance with
local environmental regulations.
For assembly, installation and
connection instructions, refer to the
Prostiva RF Therapy System User
Guide.
Handling
The Prostiva RF Therapy Telescope
consists of an eyepiece with glass
ocular lens, a fiber optic light cable
connection with screw-on type cable
connectors to accept several
manufacturers’ light cables, and a
stainless steel shaft containing the rod
lens system and objective lens.
As with all optical instruments, the
telescope is a very delicate piece of
endoscopic equipment. To ensure the
long-lasting quality of the telescope,
please follow the handling instruction
described below.
■
To prevent breakage, the telescope
should be supported by firmly
grasping the eyepiece end. Never
handle by the distal end alone.
■
Never bend the stainless steel
shaft. This could lead to breaks or
cracks in the rod lens system.
■
Handle the telescope with care.
Hard knocks, particularly at the
distal end, may result in damage or
cracks in the telescope and allow
liquid, steam and other material to
penetrate. If so, the image will
appear foggy or have an unclear
visual area.
■
To prevent damage when cleaning,
disinfecting and sterilizing the
telescope, it is recommended that
they be handled separately from
other instruments.
Cleaning
General Considerations –
Adequate
reprocessing is contingent upon the
thoroughness of cleaning. Cleaning is
the initial step and sterilization occurs
later in reprocessing and is intended to
kill microorganisms to reduce the
likelihood of transmission and
possibilities of infection. To ensure
acceptable reprocessing, there should
be no delay between the steps in this
document.
