Clean the Handset Screen
Procedure
If your handset screen gets dirty, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.
Caution Do not use any liquids or powders on the phone because they can contaminate the handset
components and cause failures.
Clean the Handset Exterior
You can clean the handset exterior using a dry, lint-free cloth. For the health-care environment, we recommend
that you use Caviwipes™ and Saniwipes™ to thoroughly clean the handset. Caviwipes and Saniwipes contain
up to 17% isopropanol.
Any cleaning solution containing a higher amount of isopropanol, including pure isopropanol, or an alternative
alcohol-based liquid could potentially damage the handset. Do not clean the handset with bleach or other
caustic products.
Excessive use of Caviwipes and Saniwipes more than 3 times a day will damage the handset surface coating
and will change the appearance of handset.
Clean your handset immediately if it comes in contact with anything that may cause stains, or other damage;
for example, dirt or sand, ink, makeup, soap, detergent, acids, acidic foods, or lotions.
Caution Do not blow or use compressed air (for example, aerosol cans, low- or high-pressure air nozzles) to clean the
openings of the handset.
Do not use a vacuum cleaner or other suction device to clean the openings of the handset.
Do not use pins or other objects to clean the openings of the handset.
Use of air, suction, or mechanical objects to clean the openings can damage the handset and voids the handset
warranty.
Procedure
Step 1 Remove the handset from the charger.
Step 2 Wipe the handset and screen with a soft, lint-free cloth or with an approved sanitizing wipe.
Step 3 If there are foreign objects (for example, fine sand) in an opening in the handset, tap the handset against
your hand to dislodge the objects.
If You Drop Your Handset in Water
If you drop your handset in water, here's what you do:
• Gently shake the water off the handset.
• Dry the handset with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
• Leave your handset in a dry area with some air flow; for example, a fan blowing cool air can be directed
onto the handset speaker grill to help the handset dry out. Just don't put the fan close to the handset.
Here are some things you don't do:
• Don't open the battery door while the handset is wet.
