Do not autoclave the product with other instruments even when it is in a pouch. This is
to prevent possible discoloration and damage to the product from chemical residue from
other instruments.

delete the dry cycle. Even in this case, sufficient drying of the product is required.

and sunlight. The air should be free from dust, salt and sulphur.
Do not heat or cool the product too quickly. Rapid change in temperature could cause
damage to the product.
The product can be sterilized only by autoclave sterilization.
Do not touch the product immediately after autoclaving as it will be very hot and must
remain in a sterile condition.
