WARNING: Avoid overloading the
thermal-disinfector as this could compromise
the effectiveness of cleaning.
WARNING: On completion of the
cleaning cycle in the thermal-disinfector,
the scaler handpiece remains at the wash
temperature for a long time. Use appropriate
precautions when extracting the scaler
handpiece from the thermal-disinfector to
prevent injury to the operator.
CAUTION: Owing to its conformation, the
scaler handpiece can rotate. When not in use,
the scaler handpiece must always be placed
on its support.
