Housing / footswitch
Cleaning:
In the event of visible contamination, the housing, footswitch and all

cleaners. Wipe the surface until the dirt is removed, using a soft cloth soaked
according to the specifications of the manufacturer of the cleaning agent but not
dripping.
Disinfection:
Housing, footswitch and all cables can be disinfected using disinfectant
wipes. To do so, use a commercially available alcohol-free disinfectant for metal and
plastic, with bactericidal, virucidal and fungicidal properties. Observe the application
instructions of the manufacturer. Wipe all surfaces using a cloth soaked according to
the specifications of the manufacturer of the disinfectant, but not dripping, or use pre-
impregnated disinfectant wipes (so-called wipes).
If applicable, also observe requirements for drying or post-cleaning.
