Cleaning and Disinfection
Inspect the Device
Carefully inspect devices between uses to verify proper function.
Evidence of damage and wear on a device may include but is not limited to
discoloration, excessive scratches, wear, and cracks. Improperly functioning devices,
damaged, and excessively worn devices should not be used.
Care at the Point of Use
Clean instruments as soon as possible after use.
Soiled devices must be separated from non-contaminated devices to avoid
contamination of personnel or surroundings.
Preparation for Cleaning
For multi-piece or complex instruments, refer to their disassembly instructions. The
disassembly instructions are available in the MAC
Service Manual.
Contact your local GE Healthcare service representative for further information.
For instruments produced by another manufacturer, reference the manufacturer's
instructions for use.
Clean and Disinfect Guidelines
Observe the guidelines while cleaning and disinfecting the device.
• Follow cleaning instructions and observe hazards exactly as issued by GE
Healthcare or other suppliers listed.
• Avoid exposure to hypochlorite solutions and solutions containing iodine or high
chlorine content, as these will promote corrosion.
