4. MATERIAL INFORMATION
The NOVAFON Modular Set is made of a high-quality plastic suitable for medical
applications.
5. SHELF LIFE
Shelf life may vary depending on frequency of use. All individual parts must be
checked for damage and wear before use. Replace damaged or worn products
early on. To avoid premature ageing of the material, store the Modular Set in a dry
place away from light. Note that attachments are considered wear parts and are
therefore subject to a limited warranty.
6. IMPORTANT NOTES
· Only use the Modular Set in combination with NOVAFON sound wave devices.
· Always observe all the information in the instructions for use of your NOVAFON
sound wave device.
· Avoid using cream or gel.
· Be careful not to apply additional pressure, otherwise the unit may be damaged.
· Be careful of your fingers when changing the modules, there is a risk of pinching.
· To avoid premature ageing of the material, store the Modular Set in a dry place
away from light.
· Check the attachments regularly for wear and damage. Damaged attachments
must no longer be used. Risk of injury.
· NOVAFON accessories are only intended for use with NOVAFON sound wave de-
vices. Use with products from other manufacturers is not permitted.
· NOTE: When using these attachments, noise production may be different from
the standard attachments. Therefore, only switch on the device once you have
made contact with the body.
7. CLEANING AND DISINFECTION
In professional and clinical use, the NOVAFON Modular Set must be hygienical-
ly prepared before first use (see manual cleaning and disinfection). For use on
several animals or people, the attachments must be hygienically prepared after
each use. Please note that machine cleaning of the Modular Set is not possible.
In domestic, non-clinical use, the parts can be cleaned with a mild soapy water
solution as needed or when visibly soiled.
A. Preparation: Detach the click module from the oval attachment.
B. Pre-treatment (if required, for example in the case of heavy surface soiling):
Required accessories: suitable plastic brush, running water (at least drinking wa-
ter quality), neutral detergent or alcohol-free spray wipe disinfection (e.g NOVAC-
LEANER, NOVAFON GmbH) or cleaning wipes (alcohol-free, suitable for sensitive
surfaces, e.g. Rheosept-WD Plus Wipes, Wachendorff-Chemie).
1. Remove surface dirt and soiling with a plastic brush under running water. Al-
ternatively, light soiling can be removed with a separate disinfectant wipe.
2. Check for cleanliness: Repeat the pre-treatment if the dirt is still visible. Rinse
each part of the attachments under running water for neutralisation and then dry
with a lint-free cloth.
C. Cleaning and disinfection: Make sure that all visible soiling is removed before
disinfection. Please only use alcohol-free surface disinfectants (VAH or IHO listed)
for sensitive surfaces (e.g. NOVACLEANER, NOVAFON GmbH; SinAlc sensitive,
Himed; Rheosept-WD Plus Wipes, Wachendorff-Chemie).
1. Thoroughly treat all surfaces of the modules and the oval attachment with
the disinfectant. Make sure that all surfaces are completely wetted. Observe the
instructions for use provided by the manufacturer of the disinfectant you apply.
NOTE: Due to its structure, the "nub module" attachment should preferably be
cleaned by means of spray and wipe disinfection (for example NOVACLEANER,
NOVAFON GmbH; SinAlc sensitive, Himed).
2. After the exposure time has elapsed, wipe dry with a lint-free cloth if neces-
sary.
8. CONTRAINDICATIONS
Since the Modular Set is an accessory and can only be used in combination with
the NOVAFON sound wave devices, the contraindications and side effects descri-
bed in the instructions for use of the NOVAFON sound wave devices apply.
In addition, the following instructions must be observed:
Stop treatment if you find it uncomfortable or painful. Watch out for signs of
discomfort, agitation or fear, especially when using on animals.
Please note: The appearance of slight redness and warming of the skin is not a
cause for concern. This is a desired effect that results from the increased blood
flow.
