Water
Start button on the EFP-500.
The LED indicator light will flash during the pumping operation.
4. Observe that fluid is coming out of all channels of the endoscope.
CAUTION
Ensure that fluid exiting the distal tip of the endoscope
is not pointed in a direction that would allow fluid to
contact personnel, electrical fixtures, or the user.

Push
the Air Start button. The LED indicator light will flash to indicate the air cycle is running. The
EFP-500 will stop after the time parameters have been met for air flush. The LED will stop
flashing and remain lit to indicate the air cycle is complete.

High Level Disinfection.
3. Remove all hose assemblies from the endoscope.
