5.1.2
Cleaning
The outer case and display may be wiped with a clean towel lightly moistened with 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or a 10% bleach solution.
Do not introduce the cleaning solution or any other liquids directly into the unit. Do not use a saturated towel which may introduce liquid into
the case or display seams. Ensure that the BD Veritor Plus Analyzer is dry and the surface is free of any residual cleaning solution prior to
returning to use.
If the BD Veritor InfoScan module is installed, BD does not recommend cleaning the barcode scanner window with any cleaning agent. Use
a clean, soft towel lightly moistened with plain water to clean the window gently. Scratching the window may reduce the scanner's
performance.
5.2
Servicing
There are no user serviceable components in the unit. For technical issues or questions, please contact your local BD representative.

The Analyzer and optional modules should be transported in the original packaging
to 14 days, up to 85% RH, non-condensing. BD recommends the original packing materials be retained for this purpose. Follow local
transportation regulations for shipping equipment containing a Li-ion secondary battery.
The BD Veritor Plus Analyzer should be stored at 15–30 °C, up to 85% RH, non-condensing.
