11 Cleaning and disinfecting
The surface of VITA Easyshade Advance 4.0 can be disinfected.
We recommend using mild disinfectant sprays or disinfectant wipes,
which can be purchased from most dental dealers.
Please follow the manufacturers' instructions for use.
If iodine, phenyl phenol-based products or isopropyl alcohol are used
to clean or disinfect VITA Easyshade Advance 4.0, permanent discoloration
and/or cracks may result which are not covered by the Product Warranty.
Disinfectants that contain phenol or phenyl phenol compounds or methyl
ethyl ketone damage the surface of the instrument.
Note:
The dentist or health care provider should follow
the CDC's recommendations for universal precautions during
the use of VITA Easyshade Advance 4.0.
VITA Easyshade Advance 4.0 may only be calibrated with a new infection control
shield. In the event that the calibration block becomes contaminated, the
calibration block must be removed, along with the holder, from the base unit and
sterilized using a steam autoclave in accordance with the instructions of the
manufacturer of the sterilizing agent. Do not use a "heat only" autoclave.
While holding the base unit with one hand, turn the calibration block holder
1/4 turn counter-clockwise to remove it from the base unit (fig. 59).
