Operating the Camera with a Light Source
Warning IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE: Before operating this device,
please read this operating manual thoroughly and carefully.
When using this device with a light source, fire and/or severe
injury may result to the patient, user or inanimate objects, if
the instructions in this manual are not followed. All light
sources can generate significant amounts of heat (41°C / 106°F)
at the scope tip, the scope light post, the light cable tip, and/or
near the light cable adapter. Higher levels of brightness from
the light source result in higher levels of heat. Always adjust
the brightness level of the camera and the monitor before
adjusting the brightness level of the light source. Adjust the
brightness level of the light source to the minimum brightness
necessary to adequately illuminate the surgical site. In
addition, adjust the internal shutter of the camera higher in
order to run the light source at a lower intensity. Avoid
touching the scope tip or the light cable tip to the patient, and
never place them on top of the patient, as doing so may result
in burns to the patient or user. In addition, never place the
scope tip, the scope light post, the light cable adapter, or the
light cable tip on the surgical drapes or other flammable
material, as doing so may result in fire. Always place the light
source in standby mode whenever the scope is removed from
the light cable or the device is unattended. The scope tip, scope
light post, light cable adapter, and light cable tip will take
several minutes to cool off after being placed in standby mode,
and therefore may still result in fire or burns to the patient,
user, or inanimate objects.

EN-27
Cleaning and Sterilization
The camera console is not intended to come into contact with the patient. It may
be cleaned, but not sterilized. The camera head and coupler may contact the
patient and must both be cleaned and sterilized prior to every use.

Cleaning the Camera Console

Warning Disconnect the console from the AC power source before
cleaning.

Should the camera console need cleaning, wipe it down with a sterile cloth and
mild cleaning solution.
Caution Never immerse or sterilize the camera console as this will
damage the camera and void the warranty.

Reprocessing the Camera Head

These reprocessing instructions are provided in accordance with ISO 17664.
While they have been validated by the manufacturer of the medical device as
being capable of preparing the device for re-use, it remains the responsibility of
the processor to ensure that the reprocessing as actually performed, using
equipment, materials, and personnel in the reprocessing facility, achieves the
desired result. This normally requires validation and routine monitoring of the
process.

Warnings
• This device must be cleaned and sterilized prior to the first use and after
every subsequent use.
• Do not sterilize the autoclavable camera head (1188-410-105) with Steris/
Amsco V-Pro or Steris System 1E. Steam sterilization is recommended.
• Use only the sterilization cycles outlined in this document. Using
unspecified sterilization cycles may damage the device or result in
incomplete sterilization.
• Separate the camera head, coupler, and scope prior to cleaning, disinfection,
or sterilization. If the coupler and camera head are cleaned, disinfected, or
sterilized as a single unit, disconnecting the coupler during use will
compromise the sterility of the two products. (Refer to the coupler and scope
product manuals for reprocessing instructions.)
• Wear appropriate protective equipment: gloves, eye protection, etc.

EN-28
Cautions
• Always install the soaking cap prior to processing the camera.
Failure to properly tighten the soaking cap will corrode the
connector pins and void the warranty.
• Inspect the camera cable for cuts and breaks before soaking in any
fluid. Return any damaged camera to Stryker for service.
• Never soak the camera in the same tray with sharp instruments.
• Do not use brushes or pads with metal or abrasive tips during
manual cleaning, as permanent scoring or damage could result.
• To minimize galvanic corrosion, avoid soaking dissimilar metals in
close proximity.
• Only camera heads marked AUTOCLAVE can withstand steam
sterilization. Autoclaving camera heads that do not bear this
marking will result in product damage.
• Allow the device to air cool following steam sterilization. Rapid
cooling or “quenching” in a liquid will damage the device and void
the warranty.
• Allow the camera head to cool before connecting it to the console.
Connecting the camera head while it is still hot may result in
system error.

Limitations on Reprocessing
• Do not cross-sterilize the device. Using multiple sterilization
methods may significantly reduce the performance of the device.
• Do not leave the device in solutions longer than necessary. This
may accelerate normal product aging.
• Proper processing has a minimal effect on this device. End of life is
normally determined by wear and damage due to use.
• Damage incurred by improper processing will not be covered by the
warranty.
