Warnings
• To avoid needle sticks, re-cap needle after injection

straight as it penetrates cartridge diaphragm.
Precautions
• Syringes must be sterilized prior to use. See sterilization
instructions.
• Hubs cannot be removed. Do not attempt to remove hub
from syringe for sterilization or for any reason as damage to
the syringe will occur.
• Do not mix metals when sterilizing syringes. Sterilizing syringes
with other non chrome-plated brass instruments may cause
damage to syringes.
