Care, cleaning and maintenance by the
user
5.1
Basics
Handling mainly involves the following steps:
● Cleaning

It is recommended to clean the unit as soon as possible after use.
Preliminary cleaning should be done with disposable/paper towels.
Inappropriate care and cleaning of the device can result in failure or
damage.
5.1.1
Intervals
To maintain the value and function of your simulation unit, it is
necessary that it be lubricated, cleaned, and disinfected regularly by the
user. This minimizes the risk of contamination for the user and ensures
the function.
The national requirements and recommendations for hygiene and
disinfection must be observed, e.g. Robert Koch Institute (RKI),
American Dental Association (ADA), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), etc.
IMPORTANT
