Care and Maintenance
Care and Maintenance
With proper care, your training model will remain in optimal condition and ready for use.
Storage and Transport
Follow these guidelines to properly store or transport your model:
• Storage temperature degree range: 45 to 85 °F (7 to 29 °C)
• Do not store in contact with other models or hard objects as the pressure can damage the
Simulex tissue. Do not stack multiple training models on top of each other.
• Transport the model securely so it does not fall.
Cleaning
To maintain the product skin for the lifespan of the product, clean the exterior of the model after each use.
Follow these steps:
1. Mix one cup of tap water with ¼ teaspoon of mild liquid soap (such as dish soap).
2. Gently clean the model’s exterior with the soap mixture and a soft, non-abrasive sponge or
cloth.
3. Rinse lightly with clean water.
4. Dab or pat with a clean, soft, lint-free cloth to dry the product after cleaning. Do not wipe or rub
the skin, which can damage it.
5. After the model has dried completely, lightly coat the external surface of the model with baby
powder and dust off any excess.
Refilling the Vessels
With correct use, the model should not require refilling. To maintain the fluid level within the model, reinject
any withdrawn fluid during training.
This model can be refilled only at the factory. If refilling is necessary, contact CAE Customer Support.
Replacing the Inserts
Upper and lower arm inserts can be replaced only at the factory. If insert replacement is necessary, contact
CAE Customer Support.
