The materials listed below are recommended for use alone or in conjunction with a compatible cleaning or
disinfecting solution. Avoid using abrasive material, which could damage the function of the components and the
appearance of the system.
•
Gauze pad
•
Soft lint-free cloth
•
Cotton swab
•
Commercial or industrial wipe that is pre-moistened with a compatible solution from the lists above.
Frequency of Cleaning and Disinfecting
Some of the system components require more frequent cleaning than other components. See “Cleaning Schedule
for the Spectra Optia System”on page 239 for the recommended frequency of cleaning. Disinfect the system when
it is exposed to an infectious substance or according to your standard operating procedures.
Caution:
Use only a gauze pad, a lint-free cloth, or a wipe when cleaning or disinfecting the touch screen, the
covers on the AIM system lights in the centrifuge, and the aperture plate on the filler. Use of an abrasive brush,
scrub material, or a sharp object can damage the surface of the components.
