6. Routine maintenance

6.1 Power Supply

• Check the AC-adaptor power supply regularly. Do not use if voltage exceeds
the recommended rating (AC220V±22V, 50Hz).
• Examine the AC-adaptor cable and probe cable regularly. Replace immediately if
defective in any way.

6.2 Display Unit

• Operating conditions should be in accordance with the requirements detailed under
"3.1 Environmental Requirements".
• Power off the display unit when cleaning. Use alcohol wipes to clean the case and an air
duster to clean inner parts.
• Do not power on or power off too quickly - wait for 2 or 3 minutes before restarting the
scanner.
If the MS Multiscan is not being used for a long period of time, re-pack it in its original case.
Store the scanner in accordance with the conditions detailed under "7.1 Environmental
Requirements for Transportation + Storage".

6.3 Probe

• The probe is expensive and can be easily damaged - avoid knocking or dropping the
probe. After scanning, put the probe into its box and press FREEZE to keep it in the
"frozen" mode.
• Only use "Ultrasound Transmission Gel" as the coupling medium for the probe.
• The probe itself is waterproof. It can be immersed in water in order to clean it after use.
However, the connector must be kept clear of water during cleaning, and kept dry
during use. Regularly check the body of the probe to ensure there are no cracks through
which liquid might enter.
• Examine the probe frequently to ensure that it is completely filled with oil, without
bubbles. Bubbles in the oil can occur, which will affect the image quality. When there
are bubbles, please contact your supplying dealer in order to arrange for a repair to the
probe.
• Cleaning, sterilization, and disinfection of probe: After scanning, use alcohol wipes to
clean, sterilize and disinfect the probe, then return it to its box.
• Avoid unnecessary connection and disconnection of the probe to the display unit in
order to minimize possible damage to plugs and sockets.

6.4 Battery

• The MS Multiscan is powered by a rechargeable polymer Li-ion battery.
• Please note, a new battery only reaches its optimum performance after 2 or 3 complete
charge and discharge cycles.
• The battery can be charged and discharged hundreds of times but it will eventually wear
out. When the operating time (scanning time and standby time) is noticeably shorter than
normal, it is time to replace the battery.
• Use only batteries approved by the manufacturer of the MS Multiscan and only recharge
