3. Disinfect the probe by using an appropriate low-level disinfectant. Follow the disinfection
agent manufacturer’s instructions for preparation and use of the disinfectant.

operator’s manual provided by the manufacturer.

with clean water. Wipe three times. Or rinse the probe thoroughly by using a large amount of
clean water (about 7.5 L/2 gallons) at room temperature.
5. Dry the probe by wiping with a piece of disposable lint-free soft cloth. Do not dry the probe by
heating.
6. Check whether the probe has defects such as peeling, rifts, bumps, cracks, or liquid spill. If
such defects exist, the probe has reached the end of its service life. In this case, stop using it
and contact the Mindray service department.
