Warning instructions: When cleaning the reusable
ear funnels, special attention is required. A tempera-
ture of 134°C in the autoclave is not to be exceeded.
When switched on for a long time the parts around the
bulb can become very hot. As the otoscope is not in-
tended for use during operational procedures, simple
cleaning and or disinfection with an alcohol-based
surface disinfecting agent is sufficient.
KaWe otoscopes should not be used in rooms where
the temperature may exceed 35° C. KaWe otoscopes
are subject to special safety measures regarding elec-
tromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The operation of the
KaWe otoscope can be influenced by portable and
mobile HF communication devices.
Limitation of reprocessing: Frequent reprocessing
influences the instruments only minimally. The work-
ing life of the instruments usually depends on the wear
and tear and damage by use. It is recommended, that
the ear funnels be re-prepared as soon as possible after
their use on a patient.
Instructions
Workstation: Remove dirt accumulation on surfaces
with a paper/disposable cloth.
Storage and transport: No special requirements
Cleaning preparation: No special requirements
Manual cleaning: The exterior surface of the veteri-
nary otoscope can be cleaned with a damp, soft, lint-
free cloth. Never allow the otoscope to come into con-

penetrate the housing. Do not use abrasive cleaning
agents! The unit cannot be sterilized. The magnifying
glass is to only be cleaned with glass cleaner.
Automatic cleaning: No automatic cleaning possi-
ble/required.
Disinfection: Only the reusable ear funnels need to
be disinfected with (for example) helipur. Follow the
concentrations and reaction times given by the manu-
facturer. The veterinary otoscope can be disinfected by
wiping it off with a cloth dampened with alcohol.
Sterilization: Reusable funnels must be sterilized in
an autoclave at a temperature of 134°C for a minimum
of 3 minutes.
Additional information: If different kinds of instru-
ments are being sterilized in the autoclave at the same
time, the maximum load given by the manufacturer
must not be exceeded.
Maintenance: Defective parts must be removed and
replaced. If the device does not function properly, fol-
low these steps: 1. Replace batteries/rechargeable
batteries and check their functionality; 2. Replace the
bulb and check its functionality; 3. Send the unit in for
repair.
Check and performance test: Check all movable
parts such as the frames of the magnifying glasses and
plug-in connections to ensure that they all move
smoothly. Turn on the unit. For all units: Visually check
all parts for damage and wear.
Packaging: Individually packed in a cloth bag or box.
