How to Clean
To clean the otoscope, use a damp soft cloth. Disinfection with an alcohol based cleaner is sufficient since the unit is not intended for use in a surgical setting. Also, make sure to clean the swing lens for best visibility. Do not submerge the otoscope in liquid.
Maintenance
Are you wondering how to maintain your otoscope for prolonged use? Keep these tips in mind:
- Check the otoscope for damage and any impurities. This includes any moving parts, lamp, and battery.
- Protect the device from moisture.
- Remove batteries if you are not using the otoscope for a prolonged period (e.g. three months).
