CONSOLE- The exterior of the console may be
cleaned by wiping with a soft cloth moistened with mild
detergent or disinfecting solution.
HANDPIECES- Thorough cleaning and lubrication of
handpieces after each use and before sterilization is
very important to ensure proper operation and service

ethylene oxide gas processes. Follow the sterilizer
