Be sure to follow any established infection control procedures for the setting in which you are working.
Warning
•
Never place the probe tip in the ear canal without using a clean eartip.
The probe tip usually does not come into contact with the skin or secretion from the ear canal, as it is covered by the ear-
tip, but you should check the channels in the probe tip every time you have used the probe. Even small amounts of ceru-
men or vernix can block the probe channels or be deposited on the probe tip.
Warning
•
If needed, replace the probe tip with a spare one.
Note
•
Probe tips should be disposed of according to local regulations.

ing.
