9. Maintenance
9.1 Cleaning the Handpiece
The entire body, cord and base of the scanner must be wiped down using a Federal
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) approved disinfectant that is labeled and speci-
fied for tuberculocidal/ mycobactericidal activity. Do not use disinfectant on the nozzle.
NOTE: All components of the scanner (excluding the tips) must be
wiped down and not sprayed. Avoid getting any moisture, alcohol
or disinfectant inside the open scanner chamber.
Recommended and approved surface disinfectants:
• Birex Wipes: TB Claim= 10 minutes- 'Phenolic (Dual) Water-Based'
• Prospray Wipes: TB Claim=10 minutes- 'Phenolic (Dual) Water-Based'
• Cavicide Wipes: TB Claim=3 minutes- 'Phenolics (Dual) Alcohol-Based'
• DisCide ULTRA Wipes: TB Claim-1 minute- 'Phenolics (Dual) Alcohol-Based'
• Maxiwipe Germicidal Cloth: TB Claim=5 minutes- 'Phenolics (Dual) Alcohol-Based'
• Ster 1 Plus: TB Claim=5 minutes- 'Quaternary ammonium and Alcohol-Based'
9.2 Cleaning and Sterilization of Tip
NOTE: The included tips must be autoclaved prior to use as they
do not come pre-sterilized.
NOTE: Ensure that the surface of the mirror does not show
residues, smudges, scratches, or any damage, as this would affect
the performance of the device.
