1.
Fill a basin with clean water. Use a basin which is at least 40 cm by 40 cm
(16" by 16") in size and deep enough to allow the endoscope to be
completely immersed.
2.
Insert the leakage tester connector into the output socket of the
maintenance unit or the light source (see Figure 3.18) and turn it ON. Set
the light source's airflow regulator switch to its maximum level.
3.
Confirm that the leakage tester is emitting air by gently depressing the pin
located inside the leakage tester's connector cap. Confirm that no water is
inside the leakage tester's connector cap.
4.
Confirm that no water is outside of the water-resistant cap's venting
connector. Connect the leakage tester's connector cap to the venting
connector of the water-resistant cap (see Figure 3.18).

Chapter 3 Cleaning, Disinfection and Sterilization Procedures
• When connecting the leakage tester's connector cap to the
water-resistant cap's venting connector, make sure that the
inside of the leakage tester's connector cap and the outside
of the water-resistant cap's venting connector are thoroughly
dry. Water remaining on either component may penetrate the
inside of the water-resistant cap and could cause endoscope
malfunction.
When the leakage tester connector is in place, the covering
of the bending section will expand as the air pressure inside
the endoscope increases. This is normal.
