Monitor and Peripheral Devices
Moisture can damage the monitor and its peripherals (for example, the MultiMed
pod, MultiGas module, battery charger). Please read the following instructions
carefully before you clean the base unit or peripheral devices. Special instructions for
cleaning particular devices and accessories are provided in the following pages.
Do not spray cleaning agents on the monitor or peripherals. Wipe them with a
cloth moistened with a soap solution.
Disinfect the surfaces with a gauze moistened with diluted alcohol.
Dry thoroughly with a lint-free cloth.
WARNING: Because of the danger of electric shock, never
remove the cover of a device while it is in operation or
connected to power.

The use of more aggressive reagents such as undiluted alcohol should not be
used on the monitor's glass because the glass may be damaged.
Do not use disinfectants that contain phenol as they can spot plastics. Do not
autoclave or clean accessories with strong aromatic, chlorinated, ketone, ether,
or ester solvents. Never immerse electrical connectors or the NIBP connector.
