View Anywhere display • Clean fingerprints and most marks from the display surface by wiping it with the soft cloth (provided). Do not spray or pour liquids directly onto the display surface itself. Do not use an abrasive cleaner on the display. If liquid is spilled on the display, wipe it up immediately.

These contain wood fibers that can scratch the display. • Use only the C5 pen on the display. Do not write on the display with an ink pen or pencil, or any other object that could damage the display. • Protect the display surface from unnecessary contact by using a case when transporting the C5. • Avoid exposing the display to direct sunlight for long periods of time. Chapter 4 Care and Maintenance Cleaning in a health care environment This section describes the cleaning procedures for the Motion C5 in a health care environment. Disinfecting procedures You should periodically disinfect the C5 according to the institutional polices of surface and equipment safety and cleanliness. Motion has tested a variety of antimicrobial solvents and information on specific products is available upon request. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, “items that do not ordinarily touch the patient or touch only intact skin are not involved in disease transmission, and generally do not necessitate disinfection between uses on different patients”.1 We recommend using an EPA-approved low-level disinfectant when general cleaning is required. For a list of cleaning solutions tested by Motion Computing, see “Cleaning solutions” on page 50. If the C5 becomes soiled with blood or other body fluids, a hospital-approved low-level disinfectant that is tuberculocidal/virucidal when used at recommended dilutions and contact times can be used. Visibly soiled areas should first be cleaned and then disinfected, or a detergent disinfectant can be used. For disinfection, the cleaned areas should be moistened with the appropriate germicide and allowed to air dry.2 If the C5 is used with patients who are infected or colonized with vancomycin-resistant enterococci or other drug-resistant microorganisms judged by the infection control program (based on current state, regional, or national recommendations, to be of special or clinical or epidemiologic significance or with highly virulent microorganisms such as Ebola or Lassa), then the unit should be dedicated to one patient or patient cohort or subjected to low-level cleaning between patient uses.1 1.
