4.2.4 Hygienic cleaning and disinfection of the suction tube
1. Dispose of the suction tube properly before the device is used by a new
patient!
2. If the device is used for one patient only, rinse the suction tube with clear
water (max. 0.5 l) using the rinsing bottle after each aspiration and place it
in a water bath at 65°C temperature for 15 minutes once a day.
