Shutdown; Quality Assurance Test - Cantel Medical MEDIVATORS CER OPTIMA User Manual

Shutdown

Use the following process to shutdown the reprocessor at the end of the day.
1. Close the incoming water line shutoff valve.
2. Wipe out the CER OPTIMA
or other lint-producing cleaning aids. These materials shed fibers which can block endoscope channels or
the internal working components of the reprocessor.
3. The CER OPTIMA system outer surfaces, including basin, touch panel and lid can be sanitized with an
EPA-registered sanitizer.
Warning! Avoid possible chemical burns. Always wear personal protective
equipment (gloves, goggles) when handling sanitizer.

Quality Assurance Test

To verify the CER OPTIMA system is operating properly, the Quality Assurance test must be performed prior to
the first use of the day. The Quality Assurance (or QA) test is used to confirm the unit is delivering the correct
amount of fluid and air through the CER OPTIMA basin connectors.
If the Quality Assurance test fails, then contact your authorized MEDIVATORS representative to schedule
servicing on the CER OPTIMA system.
The CER OPTIMA system requires the QA test be performed whenever the unit is first powered on. If the CER
OPTIMA unit is left powered on all of the time, then it will require the QA test to be performed immediately
following midnight before a cycle can be run. Additionally, the QA test can be performed at any time by shutting
off all AUTOMATIC and MANUAL cycle modes, and then pressing START.
Turn on the incoming water supply at the beginning of the day, and power on the CER unit by pressing the CER's
main power switch.
1. Press START to initiate the Quality Assurance test.
Screen display = "Quality Assurance, Scan Operator".
2. Scan the operator to document who is performing the QA test, or press ENTER to skip.
3. Verify Basin Drain Screen
Screen display = "Verify Drain Screen, Press Enter Key"
a. Verify the basin drain screen is positioned over the CER OPTIMA basin drain opening.
b. Remove and inspect the drain screen to ensure it is not worn or damaged.

fluids.
