Handpiece Tubing Cleaning and Care
Use the handpiece tubing flush system to move more water through the
tubing in less time than using the foot control. To flush the tubing after
each patient:
1. Disconnect the handpieces.
2. Hold all of the handpiece tubing that uses water coolant over a sink,
cuspidor bowl, or basin.
3. Locate the flush toggle under the control head (next to the air/water
coolant adjustment keys).
4. Pull the toggle toward the handpiece holder for 20–30 seconds.
Cleaning and Asepsis Recommendations
Flush Toggle
BIOHAZARD Discharge all tubing air and water lines for
20–30 seconds between each patient. This reduces the risk
of cross-contamination as a precaution against potential
bioburden retraction.

86.0024.00 Rev C 13
Touch and Transfer Surfaces
Touch surfaces are those areas that come into contact with hands and
become potential cross-contamination points during dental procedures.
Transfer surfaces are those surfaces that are contaminated by contact
with instruments and other inanimate objects.
A-dec recommends barrier protection for all applicable touch and
transfer surfaces. When used, barriers must be produced under Good
Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for protection. Refer to your national
regulatory authorities for barrier recommendations specific to your
location. Barrier plastics should be removed and discarded after each
patient treatment.
For recommendations on cleaning and chemical disinfection of touch
and transfer surfaces (where barrier protection is not applicable or
when barriers are compromised), please see the A-dec Equipment Asepsis
Guide (p/n 85.0696.00) included with your equipment.
Additional Periodic System Maintenance
Utilities and Shutoff Valves
The utilities for your system are located under the chair floor box. To
access the utilities, pull the floor box cover up at the front posts (1),
then forward (2) and up (3) to slide the cover off the back posts.
The manual shutoff valves control the air and water to the system. To
prevent leaks, these valves should remain fully open (turned counter-
clockwise), except while your system is being serviced.
Air and water pass through separate filters before entering the regu-
lators. Replace these filters when they become clogged and cause
restricted flow.

To check for a clogged air or water filter:
1. Turn on the Master toggle.
2. While watching the air pressure gauge, press the syringe air button. If the
system air pressure drops by more than 15 psi, replace the air filter.
3. While watching the cuspidor, press the bowl rinse button. If the bowl rinse
water pressure fades or if the water flow stops, replace the water filter.
To inspect and replace the filter:
1. Turn off the Master toggle and close the shutoff valves (turn clockwise).
2. Bleed the system of air and water pressure by operating the syringe
buttons until air and water no longer flow.
3. Using a standard screwdriver, remove the filter housing from the air or
water pre-regulator assembly and remove the filter.
4. Replace the filter if it is clogged or discolored. Install the filter with the
beveled edge facing the manifold.
CAUTION To ensure proper delivery system operation, install
the filter with the beveled edge facing the manifold.

A-dec 200 Instructions For Use
The 2-liter self-contained water bottle supplies water to handpieces,
syringes, and the cuspidor cupfill. To remove the bottle, turn off the
Master toggle, and rotate the bottle to the left.
For proper installation:
1. Place an ICX waterline treatment tablet in the empty bottle and fill the
bottle with water.
WARNING Do not allow the ICX tablet to directly touch
your skin.
2. Insert the bottle so the A-dec logo is in front, facing away from the chair.
*
3. Rotate the bottle to the right 1- 1 /
2
turns, taking care not to overtighten.
4 Turn on the Master toggle. A pressurization sound may be heard up to
2 minutes after the system is turned on.
How to Choose Treatment Water
The correct water to use in the A-dec self-contained water system
depends on the quality of water available from your municipal
source. It’s important to choose a source that consistently provides
good water quality.
Tap Water
If you have confidence in the quality of water from your municipal
supply, consider using tap water in your self-contained water bottle.
Distilled Water
If you have concerns about the quality of water delivered from your
municipal supply, we recommend the use of distilled water—either
from a commercial source or from a countertop distiller. When using
a countertop distiller, carefully follow the cleaning and maintenance
instructions for that device. Contamination may result if you do not
follow the proper maintenance protocol.
Self-Contained Water System
Assistant’s Instrumentation and Support Center
CAUTION Use caution when using the self-contained water
system with accessories that require an uninterrupted water
supply (e.g., scalers), as these could get damaged without a
continuous water source. Do not use saline solutions, mouth
rinses, or any chemical solutions not specified in this guide
in your A-dec self-contained water system. These may damage
the system components and cause your dental unit to fail.
WARNING Use only A-dec self-contained water bottles.
Do not use other bottles, including glass or plastic beverage
bottles. Do not use damaged bottles. These can pose a seri-
ous safety hazard while pressurized. A-dec plastic water
bottles cannot withstand heat sterilization. Attempting to
do so will damage the bottle and your sterilizer.
CAUTION Do not overtighten the
water bottle or you may damage
the components. A pressurization
sound is normal and may be heard
up to 2 minutes after the system is
turned on.
* For left-handed configurations, the A-dec logo should face toward the chair.

86.0024.00 Rev C 17
Waterline Maintenance Protocol
A consistent waterline maintenance protocol is required to maintain
good water quality in your system. A-dec’s recommendation for
waterline maintenance is based on continuous use of the A-dec ICX
waterline treatment tablet. ICX is intended for use with potable
water and should be used in conjunction with regular dental unit
water monitoring and shock treatments (when necessary). Use
treatment products that are registered with the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA). If you’re located outside the U.S., contact
your authorized A-dec dealer for product recommendations that are
compatible with A-dec equipment. For detailed procedures using
ICX and other treatments, see the instructions that came with those
products. Failure to follow all procedures can result in dental unit
water that contains higher than recommended microbial counts.
To ensure proper suction from the central vacuum and to maintain
proper treatment room asepsis, discard and replace the solids collector
screen at least twice a week. To replace the screen:
1. Turn off the vacuum.
2. Remove the solids collector cap.
3. Remove the solids collector screen.
4. Discard the screen according to your local regulations.
5. Insert new screen in the collector and replace the cap.
Solids Collector
CAUTION Do not empty the screen into your cuspidor. Doing
so could plug the drain.

All syringe tips are considered critical items and must be heat sterilized
or disposed of after each use.
Precleaning
Always preclean the syringe tips before sterilization.
1. Remove the tip from the syringe.
2. Immerse the tip in a holding solution until ready for ultrasonic cleaning.
3. Clean the tip ultrasonically. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions that
came with the ultrasonic cleaning device.
4. Purge all cleaning agents from the tip before sterilization.
Sterilization
Follow these steps to sterilize syringe tips:
1. Rinse the syringe tips in clear water.
2. Flush with isopropyl alcohol or equivalent sterilant-disinfectant solution.
3. Heat sterilize using a steam autoclave for at least 4 minutes at a dwell
temperature of 134°C (273°F).
Syringe Tip Cleaning and Sterilization
CAUTION Do not attempt to remove the syringe body. The syringe
is permanently attached to the tubing and cannot be removed for
sterilization. Instead, use a disinfecting protocol to clean the syringe
and cover with barrier film produced under Good Manufacturing
Practices (GMP) for protection. Replace barriers after each use.
CAUTION Disposable syringe tips are not sterilizable and should
not be reused.
