Important Information — Please Read Before Use7OER-Elite INSTALLATION MANUALIntended useThe OER-Elite is intended for use in cleaning and high-level disinfection of heat sensitive Olympus flexible endoscopes, their accessories, and endoscope reprocessor accessories. Safe use requires detergent and an FDA-cleared high-level disinfectant/sterilant that Olympus has validated to be efficacious and compatible with the materials of the OER-Elite and Olympus flexible endoscopes, their accessories, and endoscope reprocessor accessories. Use of a detergent or high-level disinfectant/sterilant that has not been validated by Olympus may be ineffective and can damage the OER-Elite components and the endoscopes being reprocessed. Endoscopes must be subject to cleaning by the user prior to reprocessing; however, use of the OER-Elite enables the user to perform modified manual cleaning of the endoscope prior to automated cleaning and high-level disinfection in the OER-Elite.Instruction manualsThe instructions for this equipment are divided into two volumes: “Instructions-Installation Manual”, and “Instructions-Operation Manual”.Instructions regarding the preparation of endoscopes prior to placing them in the OER-Elite are found in “Instructions-Operation Manual”.Each of these manuals contains essential information for using this equipment safely and effectively. The “Instructions-Installation Manual” describes how to install the equipment. The “Instructions-Operation Manual” describes how to operate and maintain the equipment and describes modifications to the manual endoscope cleaning process that can save the user time and inconvenience, if the endoscope is going to be subsequently reprocessed using the OER-Elite.The “List of Compatible Endoscopes/Connecting Tubes <OER-Elite>” identifies all Olympus model endoscopes that are compatible with the OER-Elite, plus the specific connecting tube(s) required for each of these endoscope models.The descriptions in these manuals assume that all endoscopes are reprocessed in the OER-Elite using both an Olympus-validated detergent and disinfectant. Contact Olympus to obtain the list of both Olympus-validated disinfectant solutions and detergents.Before using this reprocessor, be sure to review all of the above-mentioned manuals, the safety information provided with Olympus-validated detergents and disinfectants, and the manuals for all other equipment used in the process. Always use this equipment as instructed. It might cause unexpected danger if you do not follow the installation and operation manual.
