STERIS Life Sciences recommends cleaning the outside surfaces of

(such as Liqui-Jet
™
2 Instrument Detergent).
Clean the Biodecontamination Unit as follows:
1. Unplug unit.
2. Apply cleaning solution with a damp cloth, rubbing in back and
forth motion.
NOTE: Avoid getting solution into the controls. Wring out cloth
before wiping the control panel.
3. Rinse cloth and wipe off any detergent residue.
4. Dry surfaces with clean, lint-free cloth.
NOTE: Should it become necessary to sterilize or disinfect the
outside plastic VHP X10 Biodecontamination Unit surfaces before

sporicide specifically formulated for sterilization and disinfection of
hard surfaces.
