Cleaning and
Disinfecting
• Shock Hazard! Turn the power off and disconnect the AC power
before cleaning the monitor and accessories.
• Shock Hazard! Never immerse the monitor. The monitor has an
internal power source that is active when the unit is unplugged.
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the monitor or on any sensors or
probes. Abrasive cleaners can damage the monitor and accessories.
The exterior surface of the monitor, except for the display screen, you
may wipe clean with alcohol and dry with a soft, dry cloth. It is best to
use a cotton cloth to clean the monitor. Paper towels or tissues can
scratch the surface of the display.
Do not use full strength alcohol on the LCD display. Repeated use of
strong cleaners can damage the screen. Clean the display window by
wiping it with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth sprayed with common glass
cleaner. Do not spray glass cleaner directly on the display.
Blood Pressure Cuffs
To clean the reusable blood pressure cuff wipe it with a damp cloth or
sponge. If necessary, disinfect the cuff with 70% alcohol, mild bleach
solution, or other disinfectant. Disposable blood pressure cuffs are for
single patient use and are not intended to be disinfected.
Sterilize the cloth cuff and neoprene bag with commercially available
disinfectants such as ethylene oxide (EtO). Rinse thoroughly to
remove any residual disinfectants. Do not allow liquids to enter the
neoprene bag. You may sterilize the cloth cuff in an autoclave.
If the cuffs become grossly soiled with blood or other body fluids, you
should launder the cloth cuffs by hand or machine. Remove the
neoprene inflation bag before you launder or sterilize the dacron cloth
cuff. Feed the inflation tube back through the hole and then pull out
the cloth flap.
