ese reprocessing instructions are provided in accordance with ISO 17664, AAMI TIR12, AAMI ST79, and AAMI ST81. While they have been validated by Stryker as being capable of preparing the device for re-use, it remains the responsibility of the processor to ensure that the reprocessing as actually performed, using equipment, materials, and personnel in the reprocessing facility, achieves the desired result. is normally requires validation and routine monitoring of the process. Stryker recommends users observe these standards when reprocessing medical devices.
Warnings
is device must be cleaned and sterilized prior to the rst use and aer every subsequent use.
Use only the sterilization cycles outlined in this document. Using unspecied sterilization cycles may damage the device or result in incomplete sterilization.
Separate the camera head, coupler, and scope prior to cleaning, disinfection, or sterilization. If the coupler and camera head are cleaned, disinfected, or sterilized as a single unit, disconnecting the coupler during use will compromise the sterility of the two products. (Refer to the coupler and scope product manuals for reprocessing instructions.)
Wear appropriate protective equipment: gloves, eye protection, etc.

Cautions
Always install the soaking cap prior to processing the camera. Failure to properly tighten the soaking cap will corrode the connector pins and void the warranty.
Inspect the camera cable for cuts and breaks before soaking in any uid. Return any damaged camera to Stryker for service.
Never soak the camera in the same tray with sharp instruments.
Do not use brushes or pads with metal or abrasive tips during manual cleaning, as permanent scoring or damage could result.
To minimize galvanic corrosion, avoid soaking dissimilar metals in close proximity.
Only camera heads marked  can withstand steam sterilization. Autoclaving camera heads that do not bear this marking will result in product damage.
Allow the camera head to cool before connecting it to the console. Connecting the camera head while it is still hot may result in system error.
Limitations on Reprocessing
Do not cross-sterilize the device. Using multiple sterilization methods may signicantly reduce the performance of the device.
Do not leave the device in solutions longer than necessary. is may accelerate normal product aging.
Proper processing has a minimal eect on this device. End of life is normally determined by wear and damage due to use.
Damage incurred by improper processing will not be covered by the warranty.
