Avoid using excessive liquids on the touchscreen. If any excess liquids collect in the slots
between the touchscreen and enclosure, please use a clean cloth to soak up the liquid.
Avoid using any strong detergents; these detergents may damage the touchscreen.
Do not use alcohol for cleaning and disinfection. Avoid the use of disinfection agents that contain
high concentrations (>60%) of alcohol (Transeptic, Citrex), halogens (Germicidal Wipes,
Betadine), strong reducing agents (hydroxides, Phenolic 256 DC), oxidizers (peroxide),
aldehydes (Cidex, Metricide) or strong acids. These agents could damage the surface finish of
the base unit and the transducer surface and insulation.
The transducer face material exhibits good to excellent chemical resistance to quaternary
ammonium compounds (Quat, Neutracide 64), butyl ether of ethylene glycol (Cavicide, Caviwipe)
and phenols (Prospray Wipes). Care should be taken since disinfection agents may contain
chemical compounds that may damage the probe.
Do not immerse the base unit or accessories (keyboard, mouse or remote) in water or any
cleaning solution. Permanent damage to the electronic circuits may occur.
Cleaning: Wipe the transducer with a clean damp cloth immediately after use. Remove any
residual ultrasound gel from the transducer.
Disinfection: Follow the hospital or clinic guidelines for disinfection of equipment and accessories.
Wipe the transducer, cable and cart with a clean damp cloth.
The transducers are not intended to be sterilized. Do not autoclave. Do not expose to ethylene
oxide. Do not expose to gamma radiation. Do not expose to e-beam.
As with all rechargeable equipment, a number of storage conditions including temperature,
humidity and charge condition may affect the rechargeable battery. Please contact Neural
Analytics Customer Support when performance of the Lucid
™ M1 System operated via
rechargeable battery is less than one hour when performing an exam using a single channel as
the Lucid
™ M1 System may need to be returned for service.
