Automatic cleaning and disinfectingMachine cleaning and disinfecting with the Miele disinfector. The vario program
can be used for disinfection.
Manual cleaning Carefully wash the individual parts under running water. Clean and flush the in-
dividual parts with demineralized water. Sticky coagulates can be removed care-

Let all individual parts drip off and then dry them with a sterilized soft cloth.
15.9 Disinfecting the Reusable Tube Set
WARNING!
Do not leave tube set or other silicone parts in the solution for more than 30 min-
utes. Silicon absorbs various disinfectants and thus can be damaged when ster-
ilized with steam.
Disinfection1. Only disinfect a thoroughly cleaned tube set.
2. Place the individual parts of the tube set into the disinfectant (e.g., neodisher
MediClean). Do not stack parts on top of each other. The concentration and
application duration of the disinfectant depends on the information provided
by the manufacturer of the disinfectant. The tube set can be damaged if the
concentration is too high.
3. Remove the parts from the solution using forceps with a soft edge.
4. Remaining disinfection solution should be rinsed off with sterile water under
sterile conditions.
5. Dry all parts with a sterile cloth and wrap each part in a separate sterile cloth.
6. Assemble all parts before sterilization.
DryingAllow the tube system to dry completely at 80°C.
MaintenanceMaintenance is not required.
PackagingIndividually: A standardized packaging material can be used. The bag must be
large enough for the tube set to prevent the seal from being stressed.

Autoclave sterilizationOnly clean, dry, disinfected, and assembled tube sets should be sterilized in an
autoclave. Please comply with the instructions of the operating manual included
with your autoclave. The manufacturer recommends autoclaving under the fol-
lowing conditions:
134°C / 3 bar / 5 min
StoragePlace the tube set in a sterile container if stored for a longer period of time.
Additional informationWhen sterilizing several tube systems, instruments, etc. at once using one steril-
ization cycle, make sure not to exceed the max. load of the sterilizer.
Inspection and function testPlease check the reusable tube set for signs of damage after sterilization and be-
fore use. Never use a tube set that shows signs of damage, especially brittleness
and perforation.
