3.1 Precautions for preparation and inspection
Chapter 3 3.1
Preparation and Inspection
Precautions for preparation and inspection WARNING • Some national or professional guidelines recommend reprocessing endoscopes and accessories prior to their first use of the day or when a certain time passes after disinfecting/sterilizing, or in case the storage time recommended by the national authorities is exceeded.
Ch.3
• Before each case, prepare and inspect this instrument as instructed below. Inspect other equipment to be used with this instrument as described in the respective instruction manuals. Should the slightest irregularity be suspected, do not use this instrument; contact Olympus. Damage or irregularity may compromise patient or user safety and may result in more severe equipment damage.
CAUTION • This instrument was not disinfected or sterilized before shipment. Before using this instrument for the first time, reprocess it according to the instructions given in Chapter 5, “Reprocessing”. Failure to do so could pose an infection control risk and cause tissue irritation. • Never drop the water container or subject it to impacts. The container could become damaged, which could make air and/or water feeding impossible. • The water container is a consumable item. If inspection of the water container reveals any irregularities, use a new water container. • Do not bend, twist or pull the tube excessively. The tube could become damaged, which could make air and/or water feeding impossible. • The O-ring is subject to wear. Replace it with a new one whenever you detect damaged or deformed areas. Otherwise air and/or water feeding might be impossible.

3.2 Preparation and inspection
3.2
Preparation and inspection 1 Referring to Chapter 2, “Instrument Nomenclature”, inspect the water container and all of its components. Confirm that all components free of damage or irregularities. WARNING • Never fill in the container with sterile water while holding it over electrical equipment. If water is spilled on or into the equipment, electrical shock or damage can result. • Use sterile water only. Using non-sterile water can result in growth of bacteria or channels clogging, and this could pose an infection control risk and tissue irritation.
NOTE Fill the container with sterile water to within the specified water level marks. If the container is not filled between these marks, water feeding will be inadequate.
2 Fill the container with sterile water until the water level is within the water level marks specified on the outside of the container.

CAUTION Hang the hook of the water container on the water container holder of the light source or mobile workstation. Otherwise, the water container may fall and sterile water could be spilled on surrounding equipment. This could result in equipment damage and/or malfunction.
5 Hang the hook of the water container on the water container holder of the light source or mobile workstation.
6 Connect the metal tip of the water container to the endoscope as described in Section 3.3, “Connecting to the endoscope”.
7 Inspect gas insufflation and water feeding as described in the endoscopic instruction manuals. NOTE To disconnect the metal tip of the water container from the endoscope, perform the procedure as described in Section 3.4, “Disconnecting from the endoscope”.

3.3 Connecting to the endoscope
3.3
Connecting to the endoscope CAUTION • Never drop the water container or subject it to impacts. The container could become damaged, which could make gas insufflation and water feeding impossible. • Do not bend, twist or pull the tube excessively. The tube could become damaged, which could make gas insufflation and water feeding impossible. • Connect the metal tip slowly and carefully. Otherwise, the metal tip could become damaged, which could make gas insufflation and water feeding impossible. • Push the metal tip straight onto the water supply connector on the endoscope. If connection to the endoscope is excessively angled, the metal tip may be damaged.
Connect the metal tip of the water container to the endoscope connector as described below. (See Figure 3.5)
1 Push the metal tip’s water supply channel gently onto the water supply connector on the endoscope at an angle of 90° to the connector. (See Figure 3.5)
2 Turn the metal tip 90° clockwise to align the air supply channel with the air supply connector of the endoscope. (See Figure 3.5)
