Care and Maintenance
The ACC2 should be handled with the care appropriate to
any precision medical instrument. Avoid banging,
dropping or mishandling the system and probes.

damage or wear. Other than maintaining an adequate
supply of medical grade nitrous oxide, the system is
essentially maintenance free.
