WARNING:
Clean, disinfect, and sterilize new or repaired handpieces and instruments before first use and between each patient use. Only use sterilized handpieces and instruments during treatment. Non-sterilized handpieces and instruments may cause bacterial or viral infections. Always sterilize handpieces and instruments after operation. Always examine unit components for damage before commencing treatment. Damaged components must not be used and must be replaced. Use for intended purposes only. Failure to observe the operating instructions may result in the patient or user suffering serious injury or the product being damaged, possibly beyond repair. Before using this product, make sure that you have studied and understood the operating instructions. Do not install where there is a risk of an explosion. The system is not intended for operation in the presence of flammable anesthetics or gases. The lens for the electric motor LED is soft and can be damaged. If the lens needs to be cleaned, use a lint-free swab and isopropyl alcohol – do not use other solvents as they might adversely react with the LED assembly. The system’s electric motor is not recommended for use with endodontic files that have torque limit requirements less than 100 g-cm. Do not use this device for dental implant procedures. Do not run saline solutions through the water system — saline will rust the water filters. For use by qualified and trained personnel only. CONTRAINDICATION: Ultrasonic oscillations emitted by the optional Ultrasonic Scaler may prevent the proper function of cardiac pacemakers. Therefore, Aseptico recommends that patients with a cardiac pacemaker should not be treated with the Ultrasonic Scaler component of the AEU-525S System. The optional Ultrasonic Scaler instrument tips oscillate at high frequency and can fracture during operation. To help prevent the tips from fracturing and possibly injuring the patient, always follow the scaler manufacturer’s operating instructions and recommended ultrasonic power settings. Operating the system without using the High or Low Volume Evacuation can cause the compressor motor to cycle on/off, possibly affecting other electrically powered equipment sharing the same circuit. Dispose of electronic waste and waste containing amalgam in accordance with local regulations. Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally. Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation. Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the unit, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result. Do not stare into the handmotor LED! The light from the hand motor LED may cause eye injury. Do not stare into the scaler leds! The light from the scaler LEDs may cause eye injury. Under certain conditions of use, the tip of the dental drill, handpiece, or hand motor may exceed 43 °C (109 °F) and can cause thermal injury to the patient. To avoid the risk of overheating, observe the following practices: · Always operate a high-speed handpiece with water coolant. · Do not operate the handmotor continuously for long periods of time. Use the appropriate duty cycle stated
for the hand motor and handpiece selected. · Only touch the bur or file to the tooth of the patient; avoid contacting other parts of the patient with the
device. · Ensure that the ratio setting is set to match the gear ratio of the handpiece being used. · Thoroughly clean and lubricate the E-type handpieces after each use and before sterilization. · Follow the instructions provided with the handpiece from the manufacturer for complete operating and
maintenance instructions. Under certain conditions of use, the tip of the optional ultrasonic scaler may exceed 43 °C (109 °F) and can cause thermal injury to the patient. To avoid the risk of overheating, observe the following practices: · Do not use the scaler dry. If used dry, the Instrument Tip will heat immediately. · Verify that the scaler coolant flow available at the tip is no less than 20ml/min before use on a patient. · Follow the scaler manufacturer’s operating instructions and recommended ultrasonic power settings for
each tip. · Never use the scaler on metal or porcelain restorations.

STERILIZATION AND MAINTENANCE:
Because of its simple design, the Transport III System requires very little maintenance. Any maintenance that is needed can be performed in minutes.
PURGING THE SYSTEM: If the unit will not be used for an extended period of time, or if the unit might be subjected to freezing conditions, the user should purge the system of all water. Simply empty the contents of the water bottle and install it back into its cap, then operate the air/water syringe, scaler, and handpiece with water coolant `ON’ until only air comes through the water lines. Pack the unit and store as normal.
HANDPIECES:
Thorough cleaning and lubrication of E-
type handpieces after each use and before
sterilization is very important to ensure
proper operation and service life of the
handpiece. Follow the instructions
provided with the handpiece for complete
maintenance instructions. When sterilizing

LED
MOTOR LED LENS CLEANING:
The lens of the LED light on the motor (see Fig. 33) is soft and can be damaged. It should not be exposed to dust and debris. Excessive dust and debris may cause a drastic decrease in optical output. In the event that the light requires cleaning, first try a gentle swabbing, using a lint-free swab. If needed, use a lint-free swab and isopropyl alcohol to gently remove dirt from the lens. Do not use other solvents as they may adversely react with the LED assembly.
GENERAL CLEANING: The external surfaces of the chassis should be cleaned using a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution. Any external surfaces of the unit that are contacted during use should be wiped down with a soft cloth moistened with a disinfectant at the beginning of each day and between each patient use.
WATER LINES: Disinfect the water lines weekly. Prepare a 1:10 bleach solution (1 part household bleach to 9 parts water). Remove water bottle and discard residual water. Replace empty water bottle and air purge all waterlines. Fill water bottle with bleach solution. Run bleach solution through all lines. Allow bleach solution to stand in lines for 10 minutes. Remove water bottle and discard bleach. Flush water bottle and all lines thoroughly with clean water. Air purge and leave lines dry until next clinical use.
VACUUM SYSTEM: The HVE and low volume saliva ejector valves are fully autoclavable. Remove the valves from their hoses before autoclaving. The vacuum hoses should not be autoclaved. Clean hoses with a disinfectant solution. CAUTION: Use only NON-foaming cleansers in the vacuum lines.
AIR BOTTLE FILTER: Routinely check the air bottle filter once a day for condensation. To drain condensation, place a towel or container below the filter and use pliers to carefully loosen the black knob on the bottom of the filter. IMPORTANT: To open the drain, turn the black knob clockwise (follow arrow on “DRAIN ” label); to close drain, turn the knob counterclockwise. Do not overtighten.
WASTE SYSTEM CLEANING: Empty and clean the waste system whenever the level alert occurs. Also empty and clean it routinely once a day or before the unit is to be shipped or stored. Follow these steps:
1) Empty all waste from the waste container, including any solids trapped in the HVE strainer in the waste container lid. 2) Prepare approximately 2/3 liter of 10% bleach/water solution in a separate container. Submerge the end of the high-vacuum ejector (HVE) into this bleach solution and pull no more than 1/3 liter of the solution through the line into the waste container. Repeat this process for the saliva ejector (low vacuum) line. IMPORTANT: The solution will enter the waste container at a very high rate — Care must be taken not to overfill the container’s waste compartments. 3) Discard bleach solution. All components of the waste container, including the lid assembly and waste container strainer, can be safely rinsed with 10% bleach solution. (NOTE: Take care to ensure that water is kept off the level-sensor electrical connector on the case.) Rinse and dry tanks and the lid. If unit is to be shipped or stored, hang vacuum lines vertically to allow any residual water to drain before packing.
