The oven may have been used for treating and processing infectious
substances, which may have caused contamination of the oven and its
components.
Prior to disposal, it is therefore mandatory that all oven components be
properly decontaminated.
Clean the oven components thoroughly, then disinfect or
decontaminate them (depending on application).
Attach a declaration of decontamination with details on
decontamination activities performed to the items that are to be
disposed of.
