8.5 Disinfecting and/or sterilising
Select heated or chemical disinfection according to local standards for disinfec-
tion and the table of applicable methods.
Washing machine - heat-disinfecting program:
Automatic washing machines designed for medical equipment will normally
include program cycles for heat disinfection.
Autoclaving: Use standard autoclaving equipment adjusted for 134 °C (273 °F) for
resuscitator parts according to the table above.
Sterilisation by gravity steam autoclave running a full cycle at 134 degrees Celsius
for 10 minutes at a standard pressure and then dry 30 minutes.
For drying and cooling leave the parts to dry and/or cool completely before
reassembling the resuscitator.
Ambu product testing has shown that the resuscitator is still fully functional
following autoclaving 30 times. The actual number of times that the product
can be autoclaved while maintaining full functionality will vary, and can be both
higher and lower than 30 times, depending on product use, storage, and wear
and tear. Always perform a test of function prior to each use.
Note: that it is the user’s responsibility to qualify any deviations from
the recommended method of processing
8.6 Inspection of parts
After cleaning, disinfecting and/or sterilising carefully inspect all parts for damage
and residuals or excessive wear and replace if necessary. Some methods may
cause discoloration of rubber parts without impact on their lifetime. In case of
material deterioration e.g. cracking, the parts should be replaced.
When inserting the valve housing of the inlet valve: Make sure that the bag
opening seats smoothly against the flange.
When inserting the patient valve disc: Make sure that the butt of the stem is
pushed through the hole in the middle of the patient valve housing.
When mounting the outlet cap (option): Note that the slot of the outlet cap
should face the patient connector.
8.7 Reassembly
Reassemble the parts of the resuscitator as shown in the illustration 
Adult (6.1), Peadiatric (6.2), Neonate (6.3)
CAUTION
For neonate version, the adapter for reservoir bag shall be mounted on the inlet con-
nector, and the cap on the adapter must be put on the oxygen nipple before the
reservoir bag can be connected to the resuscitator.
9. Test of function

Resuscitator
Close the pressure-limiting valve with the override cap (This only applies to
the version with pressure limiting valve) and close the patient connector with
the thumb (7.1). Briskly squeeze the bag. The resuscitator shall offer resistance to
the squeeze.
