1Reusable tip There are three types of tips: Normal, facing downward; Side, facing
left; and Posterior, facing downward. Note: The posterior tip allows for
more comfortable scanning in hard-to-reach areas. The posterior tip is
designed for quadrant scanning only and should not be used to scan a
complete arch. 
The removable scanner tips can be autoclaved for up to 20 cycles.
After 20 cycles, discard the tip. If you limit the holding time at 134°C
to not more than 4 minutes, you can autoclave the tip up to 60 cycles.

Specifications User Guide for more information.
