Probe maintenance
Refer to the Ultrasound System User Manual, the probe’s User
Manual/Probe Care Card, or Probe Addendum (p/n 5661328)
for probe maintenance, checks, cleaning, and disinfecting
instructions.
NOTE: GE does not substantiate the effectiveness of recommended
disinfectant products. Questions regarding efficacy, instructions
for use, and proper handling should be directed to the
disinfectant manufacturer. GE publishes a list of
material-compatible disinfectants (see below and also refer to
the GE website at http://www3.gehealthcare.com/en/Products/
Categories/Ultrasound/Ultrasound_Probes. DO NOT use
non-GE-approved disinfectants or products that have not been
evaluated by GE for material compatibility. Damages linked to
the use of disapproved chemicals are not covered under product
warranty or service contract.)
WARNING
To help protect yourself from blood borne diseases, wear
approved disposable gloves. These are made of nitrile derived
from vegetable starch to prevent allergic latex reactions.
CAUTION
Failure to follow the prescribed cleaning or disinfection
procedures will void the probe’s warranty.
DO NOT soak or wipe the lens with any product not listed in the
User Manual. Doing so could result in irreparable damage to
the probe.
Follow care instructions that came with the probe.
CAUTION
Disinfect a defective probe before you return it. Be sure to tag
the probe as being disinfected.
CAUTION
Transesophageal and intraoperative probes require a special
handling. Refer to the user documentation enclosed with these
probes.
