9.7 Disposal
Your s-max and its batteries are durable products. After expiry of the natural service life, you can return
these components to AAT Alber Antriebstechnik GmbH or their specialist dealers for disposal.
The s-max and its batteries must not be disposed of in places that are not
designated for this purpose according to the current legislation in force in
the respective country (e.g. landfills). It may contain substances that could
prove harmful to the environment.
A product marked with the crossed dustbin must not be disposed of with
household waste (WEEE Directive). Find out about the legal regulations
applicable in your country, as the WEEE Directive does not apply in all
European countries.
9.5 Technical safety testing
NOTE - Technical safety tests may only be performed by the manufacturer, the AAT field staff or
the authorised specialist shop.
NOTE - It is recommended to perform a technical safety test every two years. The inspection
plate provides information about the latest date. Tip: After a change in operator/reuse.

9.6 Reuse (change in operator)
The term reuse is used when the AAT product of patient X is to be used for another patient Y. Please
contact the manufacturer, the AAT field staff or the authorised specialist shop.
The s-max is suitable for reuse. A technical safety test and cleaning/disinfection work should be
performed prior to each reuse. (Refer to chapters 9.5 and 9.3)
To ensure flawless device function, we recommend carrying out a safety check
every 2 years. We also recommend the technical safety test before each reuse.
Training is required in order to be able to perform the technical safety testing.
