necessary for optimal operation and safety.
Cleaning the Mounting Assembly
CAUTION:
GCX makes no claims regarding the efficacy of the listed chemicals or processes as a means for controlling
infection. Consult your hospital’s infection control officer or epidemiologist. To clean or sterilize mounted devices or
accessory equipment, refer to the specific instructions delivered with those products.
1. The mounting assembly may be cleaned with most mild, non-abrasive solutions commonly used in the hospital
environment (e.g. diluted bleach, ammonia, or alcohol solutions).
2. The surface finish will be permanently damaged by strong chemicals and solvents such as acetone or
trichloroethylene.
3. Steel wool or other abrasive material should never be used.
4. Damage caused by the use of unapproved substances or processes will not be warranted. We recommend testing of
any cleaning solution on a small area of the arm that is not visible to verify compatibility.
5. Never submerge or allow liquids to enter the arm. Wipe any cleaning agents off the arm immediately using a water-
dampened cloth. Dry mounting assembly thoroughly after cleaning.
