Cleaning & Caring for the Pendant
To clean the Pendant
1. Remove the Pendant from the lanyard or belt clip.
2. Pre-clean the Pendant using an approved cleaner.
•
A soft brush can be used to clean the hard-to-reach areas.
•
Brushes must be sanitized after each use according to the manufacturer’s
instructions and your facility’s infection control procedure.
3. Sanitize the Pendant by spraying it with an
approved
cleaner
.
•
Using an approved cleaner does not confirm the suitability of the cleaner to
meet your infection control standard; it only indicates that the Pendant will
not be harmed by the cleaner.
•
Allow the cleaner to remain on the Pendant for the amount of time specified
by the manufacturer. When using surface disinfectants and decontaminate
cleaners, always follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
4. Wipe the Pendant with a clean cloth or towel, and then allow the Pendant to air-
dry.
5. Place the clean Pendant in a storage container for future use.
CAUTION: Use of non-approved cleaners can cause permanent damage to
the Pendant and will void any and all warranties.
