Section VII
Decontamination of returned product
Neither the generator nor footswitch may be sterilised. To decontaminate the
generator or footswitch surfaces, use a mild antibacterial detergent on a damp
cloth. Do not allow fluids to enter the generator or footswitch connectors. Do
not use caustic, or abrasive cleaning materials.
All equipment received by a service facility from the user, should be
accompanied by a relevant certificate of decontamination. This certificate
should detail the method of decontamination, the date of process and the name
and signature of the person responsible.
Handpiece/Connector Cables may be sterilized according to the product's
Instructions for Use
If the equipment is already free from contamination, as in the case of a brand
new generator being returned, a signed certificate is still required with a
statement as to why the generator is believed to be free from contamination.
WARNING:
If suspicion of a particular risk exists then contact should be made
with the relevant Hospital Infection Control Manager or Epidemiologist whilst the
equipment in question is quarantined.
