WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
This hookup is intended for connection only with the specific endoscope models
identified in the appropriate Medivators online hookup guide. Use of this hookup with
endoscopes other than those specified by the hookup application guide may result in
inadequate HLD.
Users operating Medivators AERs and hookups must be trained and competent in the
understanding of endoscope channel systems.
Prior to reprocessing, users must verify that the hookup used contains connections
for all appropriate channels that require a separate reprocessing connection
according to the hookup instructions
All connectors and adapters must remain firmly attached and unrestricted for the
entire disinfection cycle to ensure adequate HLD. Users must inspect the endoscope
and hookup combination to verify proper connection and flow.
Modifications or repairs to hookups which do not correspond to the manufacturer’s
specifications may result in inadequate HLD and/or damage to endoscopes.
Failure to properly clean and prepare endoscope for immersion prior to hookup
connection may result in inadequate HLD and/or damage to the endoscope.
Ensure proper alignment of all connectors with the endoscope mating parts prior
to attachment. Misalignment may cause damage to hookup components and/or
endoscope mating parts.
Endoscopes must be inspected for damage and verified to be in proper working
order prior to hookup connection. Connection of hookups to damaged endoscopes
or endoscopes with obstructed/restricted channels could result in inadequate HLD.
Manual leak testing must be carried out in accordance with manufacturer’s
recommendations prior to reprocessing.
Install all necessary waterproof caps, plugs and cleaning adapters prior to
immersion.
Do NOT autoclave Medivators hookups.
Minntech makes no claim on high-level disinfection efficacy when these
reprocessing instructions are not followed, or when this hookup kit is applied to
endoscopes other than those specified in the online interactive hookup guide
.
Avoid biological contamination. Always wear personal protective equipment when
handling endoscopes.
