CAUTIONS
• Alkaline and highly acidic detergents and solutions
cause damage to the devices.
• Channels and crevices found on this device require
particular attention during cleaning.
• Pay special attention to the water quality used
throughout reprocessing. Hard water can damage
the surface of the equipment. Avoid using hard water.
Instead use purified water unless otherwise specified.
Limitations on reprocessing
• Repeated processing has minimal effects on these
devices. Product life is normally determined by wear
and damage due to use.
• It is important to have Integra NeuroSpecialists
perform routine inspections (twice yearly is
recommended). See contact information below.
