Section 5 Maintenance and Service
5 - 1
The maintenance described below should be
performed routinely so that the EZ-S
CAN

is
always operating in a safe and reliable manner.
Calibration check and probe examination, etc.
are good practices to carry out prior to using the
system. For example checking the instrument
cali
b
ration is necessary if reliable measurements
are to be made, while a physical examination of
the probe will lessen the possibility of injury to
the eye. In any event, a routine consideration of
all the items is a good practice and may help to
avoid major problems in the future.
SYSTEM GENERAL INSPECTION
1. Be sure the instrument is located on a flat,
level and stable surface and in a comfortable
viewing position.
2. Examine each item for any defects or
damage.
3. Visually examine the instrument, prior to
use, for loose or disconnected cables or
cables which appear frayed or broken.
4. For electrical-shock protection, the AC
adapter should only be plugged into a
properly wired AC receptacle.
5. Verify that operational conditions are such
as to prevent either small objects or liquids
from entering the unit in order to prevent
component damage or a fire hazard.
6. Verify that the foot pedal functions properly,
is placed in a convenient location, and that
the cable is free from becoming entangled.
CLEANING
System : Periodic cleaning of the EZ-S
CAN

enclosure with a soft cloth is all that is usually
required to keep the system looking new.
Stubborn stains may be removed using a soft
cloth dampened with a mild detergent solution.
CAUTION
Never use strong solvents such as benzene,
acetone, thinner or abrasive cleansers as these
may damage the system.
WARNING
To prevent electrical shock, it is recommended
that the power cord be disconnected prior to
cleaning the system.
Probes : The Probes must be cleaned and
disinfected between patients to prevent the
transmission of infections. It is the user’s
responsibility to ensure that the relevant
standards are maintained and that the products
and procedures are effective and appropriate for
ophthalmic applications. The following
information is provided for the guidance of
users, and specific products are mentioned for
illustration only. Products must be used in
accordance with the particular manufacturer’s
instructions.
The following guidelines should be used to
prevent patient-to-patient transfer of infection:
1. The probe must be cleaned between all
patients to prevent patient-to-patient transfer
of infection.
2. The probe may be cleaned using Cidex
liquid disinfectant, usually found in
hospitals. Other FDA cleared disinfectants
may also be used.
