Manual Cleaning

Clean before and after each use:
1. Place the protective cap securely onto the Remote Hand Control cable connector.
2. Carry out a first soaking bath in a pH-neutral detergent such as CIDEXPLUS for 15 minutes (or an
equivalent decontaminant solution) and refer to decontaminant instructions for immersion time and
bath temperature
3. Carry out 5 (five) to-and-fro motions with a swab-type brush on all surfaces, paying particular
attention to the buttons, the screws on the back side and the seam around the sides.
4. Check for remaining debris and remove as needed.
5. Carry out a second soaking bath in a pH-neutral detergent such as CIDEXPLUS for a minimum of
15 minutes while using an ultrasound bath frequency of 50–60Hz (or an equivalent decontaminant
solution) and refer to cleaning agent solution manufacturer's instructions for immersion time and bath
temperature.
6. Rinse with deionized water for 30 seconds at ambient temperature.
7. Dry with medical air at less than 100°C or 212°F for 30 seconds.
Inspection after cleaning
1. Inspect before sterilization or storage to ensure the complete removal of soil from surfaces and holes.
2. If areas are difficult to inspect visually, check for blood by immersing or flushing in a 3% hydrogen
peroxide solution. If bubbling is observed, blood is present. Rinse thoroughly after using hydrogen
peroxide solution.
3. If soil is still present, re-clean.
STERILIZATION
• The Remote Hand Control is factory sealed and can be completely sterilized using a steam autoclave.
• Use a validated, properly maintained and calibrated steam sterilizer.
• Effective steam sterilization can be achieved using a pre-vacuum cycle of 132°C for 4 minutes.
