solution. A separate means for administering sterile coolant and irrigant is required if you use the

guide in your Ergonomic Products Self- Contained water system. These may damage the system
components and cause equipment failure.
Check water lines periodically for deterioration and replace if necessary prior to patient use. If wa-
ter line tubing needs to be replaced, please contact Ergonomic Products.
Ergonomic Products does not assume responsibility for you waterline treatment decisions. Always
choose a waterlines maintenance protocol that fits your practice needs and in your practice budget.
All microbials used for dental waterline maintenance must be registered with the EPA. NOTE: De-
pending on the cleaning/shock product used, you may need up to 3 days to complete the cleaning/
shocking protocol. Always follow manufacturer instructions for cleaning/shocking procedures
