3. Clean the exterior surface of the equipment using a soft cloth dampened with the cleaner.
4. Wipe off all the cleaning solution with a dry cloth after cleaning if necessary.

Disinfecting
The applied parts touching the patients’ body are required to be disinfected once after each
use. The recommended disinfectants include: ethanol 70%, isopropanol 70%, glutaraldehyde-
type 2% liquid disinfectants.
Disinfection may cause damage to the equipment and is therefore not recommended for this
pulse oximeter unless otherwise indicated in your hospital’s servicing schedule. Clean the
pulse oximeter before disinfecting it.
Caution:
Never use EtO or formaldehyde for disinfection.
Please note during operation:
You should take out the probe and take good care of it, and also take out the batteries after
measuring if the pulse oximeter will not be used for a long time.
