Cleaning of the MAYFIELD 2 Base Unit
These instructions are the recommendation of the manufacturer to ensure proper function and to extend the life and
performance of the equipment. As the equipment is reprocessed over time, many factors, including water quality used,
frequency of inspections and servicing, and method of reprocessing may impact the long term performance of the
equipment. Manual cleaning has been shown to exhibit the least amount of degradation of device performance over time,
and is therefore the recommended method of reprocessing to extend the long term performance of the equipment. The
equipment may also be reprocessed by automated cleaning and disinfection per the instructions contained in this section.
No degradation of product performance is anticipated given the device is properly cared for as recommended by the
manufacturer. This care includes inspections and periodic servicing, and avoidance of hard water where recommended. In
the absence of proper care and servicing, negative effects may be seen after repeated processing over time which may lead to
reduced performance.
Considerations:
• Follow the instructions exactly as listed in this Instruction Manual and your Hospitals procedures for
decontamination, cleaning and to reprocess medical instruments safely.
• It is important to know what method of cleaning/decontamination is needed based on what type of debris exposure
the equipment has received. This is especially important when there is the possibility of exposure to Highly
