4. Care & Cleaning
Your healthcare professional will handle much of the care and cleaning needed for your PRO/PRO to GO.
Periodically check to make sure the PRO/PRO to GO is working properly.
If the PRO/PRO to GO does not seem to work properly or is showing an alert, see 3.2 Troubleshooting. Contact your
healthcare professional for help. If the A.C. Power Adapter is damaged, it must be replaced immediately. Contact your
healthcare professional for help.
WARNING:
The PRO/PRO to GO must only be used with the supplied A.C. Power Adapter. Use of another adapter/power
cord could result in physical hazards, including delayed therapy, electrocution and fire. These hazards could result in injury
or death.
4.1 Disposal of Used Components
Your healthcare professional should remove your dressings, tubing and used canisters.
4.2 Cleaning the PRO/PRO to GO
The PRO/PRO to GO should need only light cleaning. Make sure to unplug the PRO/PRO to GO before cleaning. The
battery provides power when the PRO/PRO to GO is unplugged so negative pressure wound therapy is not interrupted.
Clean the PRO/PRO to GO with a damp soft cloth and a mild soap and water solution.
Do not saturate the PRO/PRO to GO with liquid or allow liquid to pool on the PRO/PRO to GO. This can present a potential
hazard for you and/or your healthcare professional.
WARNING:
Avoid spilling or spraying liquid on any part of the PRO/PRO to GO. Liquids can cause corrosion when left
on electronic controls which can lead to failure. Component failure may cause the PRO/PRO to GO to operate erratically,
possibly causing a potential hazard to you or your caregiver.
Carrying Case and IV Pole Adapter: Follow the same procedure as above.
4.3 A.C. Power Adapter Inspection
The A.C. Power Adapter should be inspected regularly for damage. If you notice any damage to the A.C. Power Adapter,
call your healthcare professional for a replacement to avoid interruption of therapy.
WARNING:
The PRO/PRO to GO must only be used with the supplied A.C. Power Adapter. Use of another adapter/power
cord could result in physical hazards, including delayed therapy, electrocution and fire. These hazards could result in
injury or death.
