Carum, Ardo Bellis and Calypso

To safeguard the hygiene of the Ardo breastpumps Ardo Bellis, Carum and Calypso, Ardo medical AG recommends that the surface of the breastpumps and the Carum packaging box be reprocessed immediately after return. The pump surface is reprocessed using a non-phenol disinfectant.
Abrasive agents should not be used. If pumpsets or other accessories have been returned, they must be disposed of because they are intended for personal use.

Important notes

Every time the device is cleaned, it must be switched off, and the power cable must be disconnected from the power supply. Failure to do so may result in an electric shock!
If the pump is contaminated by overflow or another cause, the contaminated parts must be disposed of by the user according to local guidelines.
Do not use cleaners or disinfectants based on phenol! Failure to follow this instruction may destroy the plastic materials due to the formation of fine cracks.

Reprocessing

The device must be cleaned and disinfected each time before it is supplied to a customer. This also applies for the first use after delivery because none of the Ardo breastpumps are supplied disinfected.
