Caution
Do not sterilize a probe without a STERRAD label* using the STERRAD system.
It can cause damage or deterioration to the probe shell. Use the STERRAD system only to sterilize
a probe with a STERRAD label.
Do not put the probe directly into the sterilization pouch*.
This can cause the film of the sterilization pouch to stick to the cable covering, resulting in damage
to the cable. Completely wrap the entire probe (including the transducer, cable and connector) with
sterilization wraps* before putting it into the sterilization pouch
