ENGLISH/INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Figure 2: View of Buttons Postoperative After use do not allow soiled/contaminated devices to dry prior to pre-cleaning and disinfecting. Consider covering the reusable device with a cloth saturated with distilled water to avoid drying of soil. NOTE: If the cleaning and sterilization process is likely to be delayed and the devices are allowed to dry with blood, body fluid, bone, and tissue debris, it is highly recommended to spray the devices with distilled water to loosen the dried soil before proceeding to the cleaning and sterilization process. All subsequent cleaning and sterilization steps are facilitated by not allowing blood, body fluid, bone, and tissue debris, saline, or disinfectants to dry on devices. Immersion of manual instruments in distilled water immediately after use will facilitate cleaning and help prevent proteinaceous material from drying on the instruments. Saline solutions may have corrosive effects on some metals and should not be used.

ENGLISH/INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Manual Cleaning Instructions (to be performed within 30 minutes after each use) 1. The camera head should be manually cleaned within 30 minutes after each use to prevent drying of soil and debris. 2. Submerge the camera heads in tap water at point of use, or wipe soil and debris from camera heads using a towel moistened with water. The temperature of the water used to preclean the camera heads should not exceed 45º C. 3. Clean the camera heads while submerged in tap water (not to exceed 45º C) by thoroughly scrubbing all surfaces with soft bristle brushes (12.5 mm x 35 mm x 45 mm x 114 mm) using a neutral pH detergent solution prepared in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions until all surfaces are visibly clean. Ensure the contacts on the card edge at the proximal end of the cable are thoroughly cleaned. 4. Manipulate the coupler mechanism while cleaning with soft bristle brushes until all soil and debris is removed. Failure to actuate moving parts could result in soil or debris being trapped within camera head. 5. Rinse using deionized water with a minimum of 25ºC for a minimum of 1 minute using a minimum of 6 liters, until all the visible traces of debris and detergent are removed. 6. Wipe dry with a clean, lint-free cloth until camera head is visibly free from water droplets and condensation. Ensure the lenses are clean with no streaks. 7. Repeat manual cleaning instructions as needed. 8. To ensure connectivity from the camera head to the Cable Connector Interface, clean the card edge of the camera head after each use with alcohol (isopropyl) and cotton swabs. Refer to Figure 3. a. Place a small amount of alcohol on a cotton swab. b. Place the cotton swab on one side of the card edge and slide it side to side to remove residue buildup. c. Repeat these steps for the other side of the card edge.
Figure 3: Cotton Swab on Card Edge 9. After manual cleaning has been completed, perform either Automated or Manual Disinfection according to the instructions below (do not perform both). The Disinfection steps may be skipped if Sterilization will be performed. Automated (Washer) Disinfection Instructions CONMED recommends using the automated disinfection method whenever possible. The automated method of disinfecting the devices provides staff with less exposure to contaminated devices and the disinfection agents used. • Under running water, remove all traces of blood and debris. • Load device in washer/sanitizer and operate according to machine manufacturer’s instructions. A neutral pH cleaning solution is recommended. • Place device in an automated washer disinfector filled with purified water. • Run thermal rinse cycle at 194°F (90°C) for five (5) minutes. • Let device cool before handling. • Remove device from washer and thoroughly dry the device with a sterile lint free wipe. • Proceed to sterilization instructions. Manual Disinfection Instructions • Fully immerse the device in CaviCide® Ready-to-use disinfection solution for a minimum of three (3) minutes at room temperature. • Manipulate the coupler mechanism a minimum of three (3) times. • Rinse under running deionized water for a minimum of 1 minute. • Thoroughly dry all surfaces of the device using a sterile, lint free wipe, changing wipes when necessary to ensure the device is completely dry. • Proceed to sterilization instructions.

ENGLISH/INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Sterilization: Warnings, Precautions and Notes • The use of disinfecting solutions for an exterior wipe will not sterilize the camera heads and is NOT recommended. • Camera heads not subjected to a dry cycle (Immediate Use) may be wet at the completion of the sterilization cycle and should not be stored for use later. Failure to use immediately could compromise the sterility of the camera heads. • To prevent cable kinks, it is recommended to loosely wrap the camera cable in preparation for sterilization. Refer to Figure 4 for recommended coiling of the camera head cable.
Figure 4: Camera Placed in Sterile Tray Sterilization Instructions - Autoclave 1. Inspect camera heads for damage, soil, and corrosion prior to steam sterilizing. 2. Individually wrap camera heads.

NOTE: • After autoclaving, allow camera heads adequate time to cool before connecting to the cable connector interface or attaching the camera head/coupler assembly to the scope. This will help prevent fogging and any misleading information during initialization. • CONMED Autoclavable Camera Heads have been tested for survivability at 273ºF (134ºC) with an 18-minute exposure time. In the practice of Immediate Use Steam Sterilization (IUSS), wrapped or unwrapped without a Dry Cycle, the time and temperature parameters of exposure, as stated above for wrapped devices, assure sterilization in chamber. Post-cycle sterility maintenance for a device processes by IUSS wrapped or unwrapped is dependent on handling and aseptic delivery to the sterile field.
