CAUTION
Damage to the vaporizer caused by solvents
Many materials react sensitively to certain organic
solvents that are occasionally used for cleaning
and disinfection (e.g., phenols, halogen-releasing
compounds, strong organic acids, etc.).
If the vaporizer is exposed to such substances,
damage can occur that is not always immediately
apparent.
WARNING
Danger to the patient, risk of damage to the
equipment
Penetrating liquid may cause malfunction of
or damage to the device, which may endanger
the patient.
Only wipe-disinfect device surfaces and make
sure no liquids penetrate into the device.
* Scrub and wipe disinfection means: The surface must be
wiped moist under light pressure with an adequate quan-
tity of disinfectant.
