Safety Precautions
WARNING
The EFP-500 must be plugged into a GFCI outlet.
WARNING
The EFP-500 is an electrical device, do not immerse in water.
Follow the installation instructions to secure the device in a
safe location.
WARNING
The EFP-500 is not to be used with flammable liquids. Do not
flush with alcohol.
CAUTION
Disconnect power before moving the EFP-500.
CAUTION
The EFP-500 is not intended for use as part of the endoscope
high-level disinfection procedure.
CAUTION
Always use fresh detergent and clean water in the two-liter
container supplied with unit.
CAUTION
Always wear Personal Protective Equipment, including
eyewear. Avoid splashing and squirting fluid. Keep the fluid
outputs under water except when checking for flow through the
endoscope channels.
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.
CAUTION
Do not press the Auxiliary-Water or Elevator-Wire ‘Select’ button if
not in use. This will create back pressure and might damage your
EFP-500.
CAUTION
The EFP-500 is intended for use in flushing detergent, water and air
through the endoscope channels. Use of a dedicated EFP-500 for
detergent flushing alone without water rinsing may lead to the
development of biofilm in the inlet hose and/or EFP-500 unit.
NOTE
Use detergent in accordance with the detergent manufacturer’s
instructions regarding the correct dilution, temperature and
contact time.
NOTE The EFP-500 is LATEX FREE.
