Chapter 8: Routine Maintenance
The design of the TympStar Pro should provide trouble-free service. To help
insure patient safety, prevent cross infection and provide effective service, GSI
devices must be properly maintained. Maintenance should include cleaning
patient contact parts prior to each use. It is recommended that the instrument be
calibrated annually by a GSI certified technician.
If your system experiences a problem, the routine maintenance checks described
below may point to the source of some instrument problems. If they do not, the
instrument should receive technical service before further use.
NOTE:
It is recommended that all repairs be performed by a qualified GSI
service representative only. Malfunctions resulting from improper maintenance
or repair by anyone other than an authorized GSI representative will be the
responsibility of the user.
Pretest Tympanometry Checks
A test cavity is provided with this instrument. This test cavity enables the ability
to quickly verify, on a daily basis, the proper calibration of the unit. GSI strongly
recommends that this quick check is a part of the daily routine.
