Reprocessing the air tubing

Disconnecting

1. Hold the cuff of the air tubing and gently pull it away from the device.
2. Hold both the cuff of the air tubing and the swivel of the mask, then gently pull apart.

Decontaminating

Before the disinfection process, each component must be cleaned and rinsed so no visible
contamination is present.
1. Clean all components with a soft bristled brush for one minute while soaking in detergent
solution (see table below). Pay particular attention to all crevices and cavities.
2. Run the detergent solution through the air tubing repeatedly until no contamination is visible.
3. Thoroughly rinse each component according to the detergent manufacturer's instructions.
