CAUTION
Clean and lubricate the handpiece prior to autoclaving. If blood remains on the internal surface it can become clotted and
cause product failure.
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 on other instruments.
Do not heat or cool the product too quickly. Rapid change in temperature could cause damage to the product.
To avoid product failure, do not use a sterilizer that exceeds a cycle temperature of 138 C, including the dry cycle. In some
sterilizers, the chamber temperature may exceed 138 C. Contact the sterilizer manufacturer for detailed information about
cycle temperatures.
Keep the product in suitable atmospheric pressure, temperature, humidity, ventilation, and sunlight. The air should be free
from dust, salt and sulphur.
