For Veterinary use only
4-
Cover the manual cleaning tank with a sealing cover to reduce detergent volatilization.
5-
Immerse the entire endoscope, air/water valve
(inapplicable to VET-3512), suction valve, biopsy
valve and all ancillary components in accordance with the immersion time, temperature, and
detergent concentration recommended by the manufacturer.

Rinsing
Transfer the cleaned endoscope, air/water valve
(inapplicable to VET-3512), suction valve and biopsy
valve to the rinse tank.
Connect the suction cylinder, air/water cylinder
(inapplicable to VET-3512), instrument channel inlet with
the channel plug; block the air/water supply connector with the sealing plug; connect the injection tube
to the endoscope connector as shown in figure 4.7.3.2.
Use a 50ml syringe to respectively inject sterile water into the air/water cylinder
(inapplicable to VET-
3512) and suction cylinder of the endoscope through the injection tube at least 15 times (750ml)
Wash the outer surface of the endoscope, air/water valve
(inapplicable to VET-3512), suction
valve and the biopsy valve with flowing water; place them in a sterile container.
Use a 50ml syringe to respectively inject air into the air/water cylinder (inapplicable to VET-
3512)and suction cylinder of the endoscope through the injection tube at least 15 times (750ml).
Disconnect all ancillary components from the endoscope.
Dry the outer surface of the endoscope, the air/water valve
(inapplicable to VET-3512), the suction
valve and the biopsy valve with a clean lint-free cloth.

Disinfection of the endoscope
⚫
The immersion disinfection time of endoscope should be no less than 45 minutes; but do not
immerse the endoscope for excessively extended time, since frequent or long-time immersion
in the disinfectant may increase inner humidity of the endoscope and destroy imaging system,
which results in lens blur or damage to the sensor.
⚫
It is strictly prohibited to disinfecting the endoscope by ultrasonic cleaner or autoclave.
NOTE
Ensure that the syringe connector of the injection tube is completely immersed in the disinfectant
and all channels of the endoscope are filled with disinfectant.
