MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
Cleaning and Care Recommendation
The Firefly digital otoscope is designed to provide years of service if it is maintained properly. Proper
cleaning and gentle usage are critical to ensure that the device will continue to work reliably.
The otoscope cannot be sterilized and should not be submerged in liquids or subjected to steam sterilization
or other sterilization methods.
It is also important to note that disposable specula should not be cleaned or disinfected in any way.
Disposable specula are single patient use only and must be discarded after use. Disposable specula should
not be used if they appear to be visibly contaminated or have accidentally come into contact with
contaminated materials prior to use.
The exterior of the device may be cleaned with a lint-free cloth soaked in an alcohol solution.
Alternatively, CaviWipes or similar disinfectant wipes can also be used. Please refer to the directions
provided by the manufacturer of the wipes for appropriate instructions for use.
Wipe down the exterior of the device, cleaning all external surface areas. Care should be taken to prevent
excess liquid from seeping into the internal components.
Do not apply alcohol, chemicals, or water to the lenses. Solutions entering the optical assembly could
damage internal components.
The video otoscope should be stored in a safe location where it will not be subject to sudden impacts.
Care should also be taken not to drop the device on a hard surface as this may damage the optical assembly
as well as other internal components.
