with each sensor.
• Check the sensors and cables for signs of damage on a daily basis. Replace as required.
• The reusable sensors should be cleaned before and after each patient's use
• Wipe the patient contact area using a soft cloth with a mild soap and water solution or
isopropyl alcohol. Hydrogen peroxide can be used to remove dried blood from all
accessible surfaces
• The cable can be cleaned with a 3% hydrogen dioxide solution, isopropanol solution, or
other active reagent. However, the connector of the sensor is not to be subjected to such
a solution
• Allow the sensor to completely dry before using
CAUTION: When cleaning sensors, do not use an excessive amount of
liquid. Wipe the sensor surface with a soft cloth, dampened
with a cleaning solution.
CAUTION: Do not subject the sensor to autoclaving.
CAUTION: If the sensor or patient cable are damaged in any way,
discontinue use immediately. To prevent damage, do not
soak or immerse the sensor in any liquid solution. Do not
