4. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
4.1 Hygiene
The SmartLite
®
Max Light is a state-of-the-art electronic device. To prevent unnecessary damage to the unit
and to the power supply, these care and cleaning guidelines must be followed.
• Remove and discard barrier sleeve.
Cross-contamination
• Do not reuse single use products. Dispose of in accordance with local regulations.
• Reprocess reusable products as described below.
• Do not remove curing probe from handpiece until handpiece cleaning and disinfection is completed as
outlined.
4.1.1 Cleaning
• Disconnect the power supply plug from the power outlet and charging base unit prior to
cleaning.
• Clean the unit by gently scrubbing with a disposable towel soaked with hot water and soap or
detergent. Do not allow solution to penetrate the casing.
• Always protect lens of the light probes from abrasive materials. Should the surface become
marred or scratched, light transmission and curing performance will be diminished.
4.1.2 Disinfection
• Probe, handpiece, light shield and/or charging base exposed to spatter or spray of body fluids, or touched
by contaminated hands or oral tissues, should be disinfected with a hospital-level disinfectant according to
national/local regulations. Water-based phenolics and dual or synergized quaternary ammoniums are
approved disinfectants.
• Do not immerse units in disinfectant. Disinfect the units by spraying disinfectant solution onto a paper towel
and wiping or wiping with impregnated wipes. Do not spray disinfectant directly onto the units or allow
solution to penetrate the casing.
• Use of iodophor, chlorine or glutaraldehyde based disinfectant solutions will void the SmartLite
warranty.
• DO NOT immerse unit in water or disinfectant. Wipe – do not spray – solution (with curing probe in place)
onto plastic parts. Prevent liquids from entering openings on unit.
• DO NOT autoclave or otherwise sterilize these components.
• Reconnect the power supply plug to the power outlet and the charging base unit when cleaning and
disinfection process is completed.
