MAINTENANCE & WARRANTY
Cleaning
Cleaning of stethoscope should be done between each patient use.
Cleaning the Chestpiece
Under normal conditions, it is unnecessary to remove the diaphragm for cleaning. The diaphragm can easily be
cleaned by using an alcohol wipe. If however, it is necessary to remove the diaphragm, carefully follow the
instructions below:
Diaphragm Removal: With diaphragm side up, using a thumbnail, lift the underside portion of the
diaphragm out of its designated groove, and peel it off of the chestpiece. The groove that holds the
diaphragm in place can be cleaned by sliding the edge of an alcohol swab around the groove. All parts of
the chestpiece can be wiped down with alcohol. IMPORTANT: The stethoscope should not be immersed
in any solution. Excess liquid used in the cleaning process may result in moisture getting into the internal
components.
Diaphragm Reassembly: Once the diaphragm is completely dry, insert the diaphragm into the groove of
the rim, starting at one point, and run your finger around the diaphragm until it is seated back in the
groove.
Cleaning Other Parts of the Stethoscope
Eartips, eartubes, plastic tubing and chestpiece can be wiped clean with alcohol. Eartips may be removed for a
more thorough cleaning.
NOTICE
: Do not immerse the stethoscope in any liquid or subject it to any sterilization
process!
