7 Care and Maintenance
The service and maintenance of the system and its accessories has to be carried
out as per instructions to ensure the safe operation of the system. For the protec-
tion of the patient and the operating team, check that the system is complete
and functional before each use.
Special care is necessary when servicing, maintaining, and storing the system
and its accessories to maintain the functionality of the equipment and any at-
tached devices.
7.1

Cleaning the System

1. Use the ON/OFF switch to turn off the system.
2. Remove the power cord.
3. Wipe the surface of the system with a soft cloth moistened with a disinfec-
tant (for example, Meliseptol® rapid). The concentration of the used disinfec-
tant depends on the information provided by the manufacturer of the
disinfectant. Make sure moisture does not enter the system.
NOTE!
Do not sterilize the system.
7.2

Authorized Service Technician Maintenance

It is recommended that an authorized service technician inspects and services
the system at appropriate intervals to ensure safety and functionality. The mini-
mum service interval is two years, depending on frequency and duration of use.
If this interval is not maintained, the manufacturer does not assume any liability
for the functional safety of the system. A sticker located on the rear panel of the
system contains the latest date for the next service or maintenance check.
Ask the service technician for a certificate after he or she has inspected the sys-
tem or performed any service tasks. This certificate must list:
• type and scope of service,
• date of service,
• name of company performing service
• as well as signature.

• the system does not function.
Check whether
• the power cord is properly connected to the power cord connection (Figure 5.2)
and to a grounded safety wall outlet,
• the wall outlet has power.
WARNING!
Unplug the power cord from the system before checking the fuse.
The system does not have to be opened to replace the fuse.
