The Deep-Tissue Handpiece is sold with non-sterile disposable protective covers.   

The protective covers are intended for one-time use only and therefore cannot be 
cleaned and reused.   
To clean the Deep-Tissue Handpiece, wipe the entire outer surface of the handpiece with 
cotton gauze and isopropyl alcohol or a mild chemical disinfectant. 
 

Disinfection of the Classical (Feed-Through) Fiber Optic Cable 
►  Take the fiber and strip 1.0” off from the distal end using the fiber cleaver.  Make sure that 

the part that has debris is removed entirely.  Dispose of the contaminated fiber tip in a 
properly labeled biohazard medical waste sharps container. 

 

►  Prepare a Sporox Sterilizing and Disinfecting Solution and submerge approximately 30cm 

(12 inches) of the fiber’s distal end into the solution.  For a high level of disinfection, 
immerse the fiber end for 30 minutes at 20° C (68° F). 

 

►  After this process is completed, thoroughly rinse and dry the fiber.  For disposal of the 

Sporox, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. 

 

Changing the Wireless Footswitch Batteries 
The wireless footswitch is powered by two standard AAA batteries.  To replace the battery, 
unscrew the battery cover on the underside of the footswitch, remove the old battery, and install 
the new one, replacing the cover when done.  Dispose of the used battery as appropriate. 
 

Only use the battery pack suppled by Biolase.  The battery pack is a 

separate accessory (see Appendix B).

 

      1. To install or replace the battery pack, remove the battery cover on the underside of the 

console using a Phillips screwdriver (Figure 26).
