12 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
12.1 User Maintenance
Separate servicing is not required for this product.
Before starting any maintenance or cleaning, the device must always be switched off at the main
switch and the plug pulled out.
You should also check the applicator domes for any wear, as described in chapter 7.1.4.
WARNING:
When using lubricants, it is essential to pull the silicone cap over the applicator.
If you do not use the protective cap, the lubricant can get inside the applicator and hand-piece,
which can lead to permanent soiling and malfunctioning.
NOTE:
In this case the warranty becomes void.
12.1.1 Cleaning and disinfection of the apparatus
Clean the device and hand-piece with soap lotions or cleaning agents that do not contain alcohol or
solvents.
Conventional disinfecting products used for medical equipment are suitable. To disinfect the device,
hand-piece and accessories we advise Dismozon®Pur. in a solution between 0,25 and 1,5%. (see at

CAUTION:
It is essential to ensure that no moisture gets into the system when cleaning.
Do not spray the cleaning agent directly on the glass panel.
Do not use cleaning agents that contain strong alkalis, lye, acid, detergents with fluoride or
detergents with ammonia.
12.1.2 Monitoring the hand-piece temperature
Generating mechanical shockwave energy causes a considerable build-up
of heat in the hand-piece.
To avoid shortening the lifetime of the hand-piece, a temperature switch
has been integrated. This triggers an internal switch-off, if the temperature
becomes too high, forcing the hand-piece to cool. The warning message
appears at the screen.
As soon as the hand-piece has reached the correct operating temperature,
automatically the pop-up will disappear and the unit is again ready for use.
If the temperature switch is activated, this is indicated by a message on the display and shocks can no
longer be emitted.
