Cleaning Instructions
Do not apply liquid directly to the device. Dampen a soft cloth or use pre-moistened wipes. Do not wrap the device
in the cloth or wipe, but gently wipe the unit. Be careful not to let liquid pool around the display window or other
places. Allow the unit to air dry before use.
Special Cleaning Notes
Many vinyl gloves contain phthalate additives, which are often not recommended for medical use and are known to
be harmful to the housing of the device. The device should not be handled while wearing vinyl gloves containing
phthalates, or before hands are washed to remove contaminant residue after gloves are removed. If products
containing any of the harmful ingredients listed above are used prior to handling the device, such as hand sanitizer
that contain ethanolamine, hands must be completely dry before handling the device to prevent damage to the
plastics.

be advisable to periodically clean the scanner exit window to ensure optimum scanning performance.
