solution during the reprocessing

reprocessing, you may check during the disinfection process of the reprocessing
cycle. When it fails to meet the minimum recommended concentration, follow the
instructions in this section "Restarting the reprocessing after stopping due to

Reprocessing must be performed again from the beginning if
the disinfectant solution fails to meet the minimum
recommended concentration. Therefore, it is recommended
to check the concentration of the disinfectant solution prior to
reprocessing.
• Stop the reprocessing cycle when the disinfectant solution
fails to meet the minimum recommended concentration.
Replace the disinfectant solution and perform the
reprocessing from the beginning. Otherwise, the
reprocessing may be insufficient.
• When handling the disinfectant solution, wear appropriate
personal protective equipment. Avoid direct physical contact
and inhalation of vapors. If any disinfectant solution gets in
your eyes, immediately rinse with a large amount of fresh
water and then consult a medical specialist. Personal
protective equipment includes eyewear, face mask,
moisture-resistant clothing, and chemical-resistant gloves
that fit properly and are long enough so that your skin is not
exposed. All personal protective equipment should be
inspected before use and replaced periodically before it is
damaged.
