sterilization of any regulated medical device. This rack is intended

only to perform an initial step in the processing of soiled, reusable

medical devices.

If medical devices will be contacting blood or compromised tissues,

such devices must be terminally processed in accordance with

Good Hospital Practices before each use in human patients.

STERIS does not recommend processing flexible endoscopes,

single-use instruments, rigid telescopes (optical lens), fiber-optic

cables, multi-part instruments that cannot be disassembled, heat-

sensitive devices and coagulating electrodes in the Rigid MIS

Instrument Rack. Processing these types of instruments may result in

instrument or equipment damage as well as improperly cleaned

items. All items treated in this rack must stand temperatures ranging

from 140 to 240°F [60 to 116°C].

The Rigid MIS Instrument Rack is specifically designed to only

process goods as outlined in this manual. If there is any doubt about

a specific material or product, contact the instrument manufacturer

for recommended washing techniques.

Indications For Use The Rigid MIS Instrument Rack is designed to be used in the washer/

disinfector for the efficient cleaning, rinsing, drying and low-level

thermal disinfection of rigid minimally invasive surgical instruments.

IMPORTANT: The Rigid MIS Instrument Rack is designed to be used

only in conjunction with the RIGID MIS cycle in the Reliance® 444

Single-Chamber Washer/Disinfector equipped with the Enzyme

treatment option or in conjunction with the Enzyme treatment option

in the Reliance® Synergy® Washer/Disinfector and Reliance® Genfore®

Safety Precautions Operator Manual 920003-690

The following Safety Precautions must be observed when operating or servicing this equipment. WARNING

indicates the potential for personal injury and CAUTION indicates the potential for damage to equipment. For

emphasis, certain Safety Precautions are repeated throughout the manual. It is important to review ALL Safety

Precautions before operating or servicing the equipment.

Strictly following these Safety Precautions enhances the Customer’s ability to safely and effectively utilize the unit

and helps avoid improper maintenance methods which may damage the unit or render it unsafe. It is important to

understand that these Safety Precautions are not exhaustive; Customers are encouraged to develop their own

safety policies and procedures to enhance and complement these Safety Precautions.

WARNING – PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD:

WARNING – CHEMICAL BURN AND/OR EYE INJURY HAZARD:

WARNING – BURN HAZARD:

Always load and unload items while facing rack. Trocar ends sticking out of rack can be extremely sharp

and can cause injuries such as cuts.

Door cannot be opened during a cycle. In case of an emergency requiring opening of door, press

STOP/RESET touch pad to interrupt cycle.

Regularly scheduled preventive maintenance is required for safe and reliable operation of this

equipment. Contact STERIS to schedule preventive maintenance or obtain the necessary washer/

disinfector Maintenance Manual if preventive maintenance is done by the Customer.

Repairs and adjustments to this equipment must be made only by STERIS or STERIS-trained service

personnel. Repairs and adjustments performed by unqualified personnel or installation of unauthorized

parts could cause personal injury, result in improper equipment performance, void the warranty or result

in costly damage. Contact STERIS regarding service options.

To avoid personal injuries, always load or unload rack on appropriate loading cart or surface.

Washer detergents can cause adverse effects to exposed tissues. Do not get in eyes, on skin or attempt

to swallow. Read and follow precautions and instructions on detergent label and in Safety Data Sheet

(SDS) prior to handling detergent containers or servicing detergent injection pumps. Wear appropriate

personal protective equipment (PPE) whenever handling detergents or servicing detergent injection

pumps and lines.

When cycle is completed, wait until water flow stops before opening door and unloading washer/

disinfector. Hot water/steam may be sprayed through door opening if door is opened too soon. Wear

appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) whenever reaching into wash chamber.

When cycle is complete, wash chamber, rack and clean items are extremely hot. Allow load to cool to

room temperature and always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) before removing

rack from wash chamber and handling clean items.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

920003-690 Operator Manual Safety Precautions

WARNING – SLIPPING HAZARD:

CAUTION – POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT DAMAGE:

The table below contains symbols which may be on your equipment components:

To avoid slippery floor conditions, immediately wipe up any spilled liquids or condensation. If spills and

drippage are detergents or other chemicals, follow safety precautions and handling procedures set forth

on detergent or chemical label and/or Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

Before starting a cycle, ensure rotary spray arms in wash chamber and on manifolded accessory rack

are not obstructed and rotate freely. If rotary spray arms are obstructed, equipment damage may result

and washer/disinfector will be unable to effectively process load.

Instruments processed in this rack must be compatible with chemicals used. Always follow instrument

manufacturer's recommendations for chemicals.

To avoid equipment and product damage and maximize processing efficiency, always load soiled items

as instructed on rack.

To prevent voiding the warranty or damaging the equipment, use only authorized STERIS replacement

parts.

Use nonabrasive cleaners when cleaning rack. Follow directions on containers and rub in a back-and-

forth motion (in same direction as surface grain). Abrasive cleaners will damage stainless steel.

When choosing a chemical, select one with a low chloride content. Chemicals with a high chloride

content can be harmful to stainless steel.

2.2 Preparing

Instruments

1. Disassemble all instrument components prior to loading in rack.

2. Open stopcocks and instrument valves.

3. Fully open all handles, forceps jaws and graspers.

4. Remove seals and protective caps from each instrument.

2.3 Loading Rack

Lower-Level

Lower-level of Rigid MIS Instrument Rack is divided in two sections:

• A large manifolded mesh tray to hold cannulated instruments.

• Compartmented tray with a mesh cover, used to hold a variety of

small items such as end caps, compression springs, washers,

body caps as well as handles and small non-cannulated items.

2.3.1 Lower-Level Manifolded

Tray

See Figure 2-2, Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4.

Lower-level manifolded tray can hold up to twelve cannulated

instruments (such as Verres needles, outer tubes, biopsy channels),

rods, as well as non-cannulated components.

1. Open hold-down frame.

2. Insert each cannulated instrument end into a spray jet nozzle.

• Interior diameter: > 1 mm

• Exterior diameter: < 4 mm

3. Manually clean any visible soil on port of cannulated instruments

where a flexible tubing connector will be installed.

4. Connect a flexible tubing to each cannulated instrument and

Verres needle.

5. Insert rods and non-cannulated instruments through end of tray

openings. Slide items under instrument guides.

6. Connect suction/irrigation port to flexible tubing (see Figure 2-3,

Detail B).

IMPORTANT: Do not connect single-port suction/irrigation

instruments to a flexible tube (see Figure 2-5, Detail A). On multi-port

instruments, one port must always be left open (see Figure 2-5,

Detail B). This allows cleaning solution to be evacuated out of

instrument.

7. Distal ends (forceps jaws, scissors cutting edge or graspers)

must be fully opened.

NOTE: Do not insert distal ends in instrument holders. Distal

ends are cleaned by water circulating through rotating spray arm.

8. Close hold-down frame. Push lower-level manifolded tray back

into position inside rack frame.

WARNING – PERSONAL INJURY

AND/OR EQUIPMENT DAMAGE

HAZARD:

• To avoid personal injuries,

always load or unload rack

on an appropriate loading

cart or surface.

• Always load and unload

items while facing rack.

Trocar ends sticking out of

rack can be extremely sharp

and can cause injuries such

as cuts.

CAUTION – POSSIBLE EQUIPMENT

DAMAGE: To avoid equipment

and product damage and

maximize processing efficiency,

always load soiled items as

instructed on rack.

IMPORTANT: Do not connect single suction/irrigation port

instruments to a flexible tube (see Figure 2-5, Detail A). On multi-port

instruments, one port must always be left open (see Figure 2-5,

Detail B). This allows cleaning solution to be evacuated out of
