Stage I
Fully immerse the product in the cleaning/disinfecting solution. Make certain that all accessible surfaces are
moistened.
Clean the product with a suitable cleaning brush until all visible residues have been removed from the surface.
Brush through surfaces not accessible to visual inspection, e.g. in products with hidden crevices, lumens or
complex geometries, for at least 1 min or until no more residues can be removed, using an appropriate cleaning
brush (brush head length: 50 mm/∅: 3.7 mm, e.g. GK469200).
Mobilize non-rigid components, e.g. set screws, links, etc. during cleaning.
After cleaning, thoroughly rinse through these components (at least five times) with the cleaning solution, using
a disposable syringe (20 ml).
Do not use metal cleaning brushes or other abrasives that would damage the product surfaces and could cause
corrosion.
Stage II
Rinse the product completely (all accessible surfaces) under running water.
Mechanical alkaline cleaning and thermal disinfecting
Machine type: Single-chamber washer/disinfector without ultrasound
Place the product on a tray that is suitable for cleaning (avoid rinsing blind spots).
Connect components with lumens and channels directly to the rinsing port of the injector carriage.
Keep working ends open during cleaning.
Ensure that product links and joints are opened when placing the product on the tray.

Inspection, maintenance and checks
Damage (metal seizure/friction corrosion) to the product caused by insufficient
lubrication!
Prior to function checks, lubricate moving parts (e.g. joints, pusher components
and threaded rods) with maintenance oil suitable for the respective sterilization
process (e.g. for steam sterilization: Aesculap STERILIT® I oil spray JG600 or
CAUTION
STERILIT® I drip lubricator JG598).
Allow the product to cool down to room temperature.
After each complete cleaning, disinfecting and drying cycle, check that the product is: dry, clean, operational,
and free of damage (e.g. broken insulation or corroded, loose, bent, broken, cracked, worn or fractured
components).
Dry the product if it is wet or moist.
Repeat cleaning and disinfecting of products that still show impurities or contamination.
Check the product for proper functioning.
Immediately sort out damaged or inoperative products and have them sent to Aesculap Technical Service, see

Technical Service.

Assemble the separable product, see Assembling.
Check for compatibility with associated products.
Packaging
Appropriately protect products with fine working tips.
Store products with ratchet locks fully opened or locked no further than in the first notch.
Sort the product into its appropriate storage device or put it on a
suitable tray. Make certain that all cutting edges are protected.
Package trays appropriately for the sterilization process (e.g. in Aesculap sterile containers).
Ensure that the packaging provides sufficient protection against recontamination of the product during storage
(DIN EN ISO 11607).
Sterilization method and parameters
Note
The product can be sterilized either in disassembled or in assembled condition.
Note
To avoid breakage due to stress crack corrosion, sterilize the instruments with the lock fully open or locked no further
than on the first ratchet tooth.
Make certain that all external and internal surfaces will be exposed to the sterilizing agent (e.g. by opening all
valves and faucets).
Validated sterilization process
– Steam sterilization through fractionated vacuum process
– Steam sterilizer according to DIN EN 285, validated according to DIN EN ISO 17665
– Sterilization through fractionated vacuum process at 134 °C/holding time 5 min
When sterilizing several products at the same time in one steam sterilizer: Make certain that the maximum
allowable load capacity of the steam sterilizer, as specified by the manufacturer, is not exceeded.

To achieve a sterility assurance level of 10 , Aesculap recommends the following parameters:
Aesculap Orga Tray/sterile container (perforated bottom)
Minimum cycle parameters*
Sterilization method Temp.
Pre-vacuum 270 °F—275 °F
*Aesculap has validated the above sterilization cycle and has the data on file. The validation was accomplished in an
Aesculap sterile container cleared by FDA for the sterilization and storage of these instruments. Other sterilization
cycles may also be suitable, however individuals or hospitals not using the recommended method are advised to val-
idate any alternative method using appropriate laboratory techniques. Use an FDA cleared accessory to maintain ste-
rility after processing, such as a wrap, pouch, etc.
Storage
Store sterile products in germ-proof packaging under dust protection in a dry, dark and temperature-controlled
room.
