Cleaning and disinfecting
Cleaning is to keep free from dirt, stains, or impurities; unsoiled.
Disinfecting is the process of destroying pathogenic organisms
or rendering them inert.
Keep your PDM test strip port and USB port free of debris and
liquids. Dirt, dust, blood, and control solution can impair the
functionality of your PDM or damage it.
If the battery compartment becomes soiled, gently shake out
the debris or use a dry, lint-free cloth to remove it.
You should clean and disinfect your PDM at least once a week.
You should also clean your PDM whenever it is visibly soiled. For
both cleaning and disinfecting the same process should be fol-
lowed. Therefore, if you are intending to complete weekly
cleaning and disinfection you should complete the process out-
lined to the right.
Use the guidelines below to clean or disinfect your PDM:
The PDM can be cleaned and disinfected up to twice a week over
the course of the life of the device (4 years).
1. Be sure to turn off your PDM before cleaning or disinfecting.
2. To clean and disinfect the outside surfaces of the PDM hous-
ing, use Dispatch® Hospital Cleaner Disinfectant Towels with
Bleach or its formula equivalent (available online through
major retailers).
3. Following the instructions on the label of the Dispatch® Hos-
pital Cleaner Disinfectant Towels with Bleach , wipe the out-
side surfaces of your PDM. Treated surfaces must remain wet
for a full two (2) minutes
.
4. Let your PDM air dry completely before checking your BG
next. We recommend you perform a control solution test to
ensure the System functions properly. See ”Performing a
Control Solution Test” in Chapter 7, Checking Your Blood Glu-
cose.
5. If you see any signs of deterioration of the PDM (i.e. cracking,
separation, discolorations), please contact Customer Care.
Do NOT use IV Prep
™
wipes, alcohol wipes, soap,
detergent, or solvents. Never put any liquid into the
battery compartment. The PDM is NOT waterproof.
Do NOT immerse it or place it in or near water.
It is recommended that the user pre-clean the device
prior to each disinfection cycle.
While cleaning, do NOT allow debris or liquid to get
into the test strip port, USB port, battery compart-
ment, or buttons (see Figure A-1 on the next page).
