14.2.1. System Surface Cleaning
To clean the system surface:
1. Power off the system and disconnect it from power supply.
2. Use a clean gauze pad or lint-free cloth, moistened lightly with a mild detergent, to wipe the
surface.
3. After cleaning, reconnect the system to power source.
CAUTION
Make sure the cleaning solution does not seep into the control panel or any other
openings.
NOTE:
1. Take particular care when cleaning the areas near trackball and the slide controls.
2. Make sure they are free of gel and any other visible residue.
3. Use a soft dry cloth without chemicals for cleaning, because the surface of polarizer
is very soft and easily scratched.
14.2.2. Probe and Probe Holder Cleaning and Disinfection
To clean probe holder:
1. Disassemble the probe holder by uninstalling the two screws.
2. Wash the holder with flowing water, using a mild detergent.
3. After cleaning and drying, assemble the probe holder to the main unit.
Every time before use, layer of medical ultrasound coupling gel should be applied evenly on the
area of the acoustical window of the probe. Be careful not to generate any air bubble.
To clean the probes:
1. Disconnect the probe from the system.
2. Wipe off all the gel gently with a soft cloth.
3. Wash the probe with mild soap in lukewarm water. Wipe off the entire residue gently with a
soft cloth gently.
4. Rinse the probe with enough distilled water to remove all visible soap residues.
5. Air dry or dry with a soft cloth.

NOTE：The single-use sheath should be used on E743UA probe and E613UA probe.
Before cleaning the probe, remove the sheath gently and discard it. Put on a new
single-use sheath before using the probe.
We recommend that the single-use sheath should be CE marked or FDA 510(k) cleared.
To disinfect the probe:
Disinfection should be performed each time after use.
1. Prepare the disinfectant.
2. Place the cleaned and dried probe in contact with the disinfectant (refers to figure 13-1 for the
contacting area) for the time specified by the disinfectant manufacturer.
The following figure defines how much of the probe can be submerged.

3. After removing from the disinfectant, rinse the probe according to the disinfectant
instructions. Flush all residues from the probe and perform air dry.
1. Do not immerse the probe connector. If the cable connector is immersed, do not plug
the connector into the system. Rinse the connector under running water and dry it
thoroughly. If necessary, contact EDAN for service.
2. Prohibit infiltration of any type of liquid into the device or the probe.
3. Do not sterilize the probe using techniques such as autoclave, ultraviolet, gamma
radiation, gas, steam, or heat. Otherwise, severe damage will result.
4. The coupling gel adapted to the probe is a medial ultrasound coupling gel.
5. Do not immerse the power cord and connector of the probe into solutions. Probes can
be submerged to, but not including, the strain relief of the probe array. Do not immerse
or soak any part of a probe in any cleaning material not listed in the recommended list
of disinfectants.
