these items are to be used on a new patient, always wipe the surfaces with a
hypoallergenic proprietary disinfectant, following the maker's instructions.
The earpieces of insert earphones are made of biocompatible material and
must be used once only, then discarded in compliance with current waste
disposal regulations.
Use a cloth moistened slightly with non-caustic medical grade disinfectant
to clean the parts of the probe headset that come into contact with the
patient (O-ring around the ear, back of probes against the face).
Keep the device — and in particular the microphone components —
well away from liquids of whatever nature.
Make certain that moisture cannot form inside the unit. Moisture
forming internally of the unit can damage the instrument and
expose the user or the patient to the risk of electric shock.
The earpieces of insert earphones are not sterile. The use of
unsterilized earpieces can cause ear infections.
The probe tubes are disposable, and accordingly, must not be
washed and reused but changed for each new patient.
No part of the Trumpet or of the relative accessories is suitable for
sterilization in an autoclave, or for other thermal sterilization or
disinfection procedures.
