equipment (gloves, glasses ...),
must be complied with by heathcare
personnel working with contaminat-
ed or potentially contaminated med-
ical instruments. Pointed and sharp
instruments should be handled with
great caution.
Check that the steriliser and the
water that is used are clean. After
each sterilisation cycle, remove the
device from the sterilising apparatus
immediately, in order to reduce the
risk of corrosion.
Bur chuck mechanism (cutting
tool)
• Carry out cleaning – disinfection
– sterilisation without bur in the
chuck mechanism.
Suitable detergent
For automatic cleaning-disinfec-
tion:
• Slightly alkaline enzymatic deter-
gent recommended for cleaning
in a washer-disinfecter for dental
or surgical instruments.
For manual cleaning-disinfec-
tion:
• Detergent or detergent-disinfec-
ENG
tant (pH 6- 9.5) recommended for
cleaning-disinfection of dental or
surgical instruments. Quaternary
ammonium- and/or enzyme-
based surfactants.
• Do not use detergents that are
corrosive or contain chlorine, ace-
tone aldehydes or bleaches.
• Do not soak in physiological liq-
uid (NaCl).
Important
In the event of prolonged disuse, the
instrument must be stored in a dry
environment. Lubricate and sterilise
the instrument before reuse.
After cleaning and disinfecting/ ster-
ilising the instrument and before
using it, operate at moderate speed,
with a bur in the chuck, for 10 to
15 seconds to circulate lubricant and
remove excess.

Pre-disinfection
Preparation
• Disconnect the attachment from
the drive motor and remove the
bur fig. 2.
• Wash out the physiological liquid
from the duct by spraying
(2 secs.) in the tube at the rear
with Aquacare fig. 3.
• Carry out a manual pre-clean or a
bath pre-clean.
Manual pre-cleaning
Use Aquacare cleaning product.
• Spray for 2 seconds on the inside
and outside of the attachment
remove of residues and any
remaining physiological liquid
fig. 4.
• Carefully clean the surfaces.
• Leave to drip-dry and wipe the
outside surfaces with absorbent
paper or immediately proceed
with step no 2.
or
Pre-cleaning by bath
Warning: the preliminary bath
cleaning should be followed by
automatic cleaning-disinfection.
• Totally submerge the instrument
in a cleaning bath containing the
suitable detergent following the
manufacturer's
instructions
(duration, concentration, temper-
ature, renewal...).
• On leaving the bath, rinse the
inside and outside of the device in
cold running water (<35°C/
<95°F) for about 30 seconds.
• Leave to drip-dry and wipe the
outside surfaces with absorbent
paper or immediately proceed
with automatic cleaning-disinfec-
tion.

Maintenance and sterilisation
Soak the instrument in a tray con-
taining the suitable detergent and,
using a soft, clean and disinfected
brush, clean the exterior of the de-
vice following the detergent manu-
facturer's instructions (duration,
concentration, temperature, renew-
al...).
Rinsing
Rinse the inside and outside of the
device with cold running water
(< 35°C/<95°F) for about 30 sec.
Drying
Spray the outside and inside of the
device with Spraynet fig. 5 to re-
move the rinsing water immediately
in order to prevent damage to and
jamming of internal parts. If re-
