1-10 Safety Precautions
10. Contact with improper gel or cleaner may result in damage to the
probe:

DO NOT soak or saturate probes in a strong polar solution such
as ethanol, chloride of lime, ammonium chloride, acetone or
formaldehyde.

DO NOT bring the probe into contact with solutions or ultrasound
gels containing oily mediums such as mineral oil or lanoline.
NOTE: Read the following precautions to prevent probe malfunction:

Before connecting or disconnecting the probe, freeze or turn off the diagnostic
ultrasound system.

Clean and disinfect the probe before and after each examination.

After an examination, wipe the ultrasound gel off thoroughly. Failure to do so may
result in the ultrasound gel solidifying and the image quality being degraded.
Repeated disinfection will eventually damage the probe. Check the probe's
performance periodically.
