● The device may not be operated
without DDS bacterial fi lter / over-
suction stop!
Therefore always hold ready a
replacement DDS bacterial fi lter!
● Before each use, check that the DDS
bacterial filter / oversuction stop is
clean and dry. Wet or dirty fi lters must
be replaced with new ones.
● Please use gloves when changing the
bacterial fi lter!
● The DDS bacterial fi lter / oversuction stop
is disposable.
An exchange of the DDS bacterial fi lter is
necessary before every change of patient.
In the case the device is exclusively used
in one patient, the fi lter must be exchanged
at least every two weeks(depending on
frequency of use).
● Vacuum connection
Direct-Docking-System
The vacuum connection between the
pump and the collection canister is
created automatically as soon as the
DDS canister is positioned correctly.
