Rinsing and drying
Use sterile technique when removing the probe from high
level disinfectant solution and rinse the probe
thoroughly by soaking in sterile water for more than 10
minutes (See Fig.4). After rinsing the probe, air-dry
it completely.
(1) Remove all debris and residue of sterilant/disinfectant solution
from the surface of the probe sufficiently. Debris and residue
of sterilant/disinfectant may affect patient health.
(2) The probe connector is not waterproof. Do not allow liquid to
contact the connector.
