Hygiene and maintenance
Initial treatment at the point of use
Clean the medical device immediately after every treatment, to flush out any liquid (e.g., blood, saliva etc.)
and to prevent settling on the internal parts.
> Operate the medical device for at least 10 seconds at idle speed.
> Ensure that all outlets are rinsed out.
> Wipe the entire surface of the instrument with disinfectant.
> Remove the root canal instrument.
> Remove the medical device.
Note that the disinfectant used during pre-treatment is only for personal protection and cannot replace the
disinfectant step after cleaning.
