CAUTION  The system’s carbon filter must be replaced every six (6) 

months. 

 

Prior to changing the filter, neutralize and dispose of any high-level 

disinfectant in the soaking tray(s), and remove all equipment from the 

system. 

 

 

 

Disconnect the system’s power supply before removing the filter. 

 

CAUTION  An F321-A filter is required for use with hydrogen peroxide 

or peracetic acid based high level disinfectants. 

 

Cleaning the System 

 

  WARNING 

When cleaning the system, always wear appropriate personal 

protective equipment. Potentially infectious material adhering to the 

unit could pose an infection control risk. 

 

   

CAUTION   Do not use solvents to clean the acrylic door.  Doing so may 

damage the doors. Do not wipe surfaces with hard or abrasive 

materials. Doing so will scratch the surface  

 

 

1.

 

Turn the power switch

 OFF

 and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet. 

 

2.

 

To clean metal surfaces: Use a clean, lint-free cloth moistened with a mild detergent 

solution and water. A mild solvent may be used on these surfaces for difficult-to-

clean areas 

 

3.

 

To clean the HDPE plastic (side panels), use mild detergent solution such as dish 

washing liquid and water.  Hard to clean spots may be cleaned with a mild solvent if 

extra care is taken. 

 

4.

 

Make sure that the unit is completely dry before use. 

 

Rinse Water 

 

Once removed from the disinfectant solution, the instruments/scopes must be thoroughly 

rinsed with water to remove any disinfectant residue.  The initial rinsing 

must

 be conducted in 

the GUS

®

 system in order to eliminate risk of exposure to residual chemicals left on the 

instrument 

 

NOTE: 

Refer to your instrument or scope’s manufacturer instruction manual 

regarding the use of sterile water.
