Recommendations for Endoscopic Maintenance and Care

• Do not place the endoscope together with other instruments and avoid touching other parts with the insertion part.

• Wait until the endoscope angle returns to the 0-degree state before pulling out.

• Since the insertion part is long, please be careful when cleaning and storing it, and be sure to confirm that it is not stuck beforehand.

• When sterilizing EVIS endoscopes with ethylene oxide, remove the waterproof cap; when sterilizing other endoscopes with ethylene oxide, put on the ETO cap.

• Wait until the endoscope angle returns to the 0-degree state, then pull out from the trocar needle and trocar.

• When adjusting the angle of the insertion part, the angle should not be smaller than the range indicated in the instruction manual.

• Please keep the sheath as straight as possible during operation.

• Hold the insert gently and handle it carefully when taking it out.
