Care and Maintenance:
1. Clean with mild soap and water; do not submerse in cleaning fluids or water.
2. Use only on clean surface. Avoid felt tipped markers, ink pens, acetone, iodine or other staining products and avoid placing the model on newsprint or inked lines of any kind.
3. To ensure longevity, each module should be cleaned after each training session and a general inspection should be conducted regularly.
4. Modules and all other parts should be drained and air-dried thoroughly before storage and disinfected when needed. After use of injection pads (use water only), accumulated water should be squeezed out. Do not store wet foam pads in the skin. To prevent mildew or mold, pads can be soaked in a mild solution of disinfectant and water or bleach and water.
5. Articulating parts will benefit from a light application of talcum powder prior to training sessions.
6. Store properly between teaching sessions.
