has no contraindications for its use in ster-

3.1.3.1
Sterilization Warnings,
Precautions and Notes
WARNING: Use of disinfecting solutions
for an exterior instrument wipe will not
sterilize equipment and is not recommended.
1.
Do not sterilize handpieces with Ethylene
Oxide (EtO).
2.
Never sterilize any handpiece in a STERIS
System, STERRAD System, Abtox Pla-
zlyte™ or comparable sterilization meth-
ods.
3.
Do not sterilize handpieces in cold ster-
ilants like CIDEX.
4.
Do not “Peel Pack” handpieces or attach-
ments for sterilization. Sterilization in a
sealed pouch traps moisture which can
cause damage.
5.
Attachments with collet mechanisms must
be sterilized with the collet fully open.
6.
Remove the hose from the Handpiece prior
to sterilization.
7.
Do not use handpieces while warm. Allow
adequate time for cooling prior to use. Do
not immerse in liquid or cover with a damp
cloth to cool. Cool by exposure to room
temperature.
NOTES:
1.
The following guidelines do not guaran-
tee that the device is sterile after the pro-
cedure. Your institution is still
responsible for the normal sterility assur-
ance validation.
2.
Additional drying time may be required
for complete heat and moisture dissipa-
tion. Operation of a handpiece that is not
completely cool and dry may decrease
performance and/or reliability.
3.
Sterilization validation is based on AAMI
guidelines (Association for the Advance-
ment of Medical Instrumentation).
4.
PowerPro handpieces have been validated
to be completely sterile using “flash”
sterilization techniques.
Handpieces, attachments, and the hose may be
processed in a pre-vacuum steam sterilizer
(Steam Pre-vacuum) or in a gravity (downward)
displacement sterilizer (Steam Gravity). Place
handpiece(s), hose, and/or attachments in a
PowerPro Sterilization Case (PRO5090) and
follow the recommended minimum sterilization
exposure times listed on the following page.
