🌟 Expert's Tip: "How to Protect the Exclusive Copper Finish" While Littmann phonendoscopes are incredibly durable, the luxurious Copper finish requires care to prevent micro-scratches. We strongly recommend purchasing a specialized hard protective case. This will shield your instrument from mechanical damage when carried in a medical bag and will significantly extend the lifespan of the tubing.
Safety & Maintenance Instructions Clean your phonendoscope only with 70% isopropyl alcohol wipes. Strictly avoid immersing the instrument in liquids or subjecting it to sterilization. To prevent the tubing from hardening, avoid prolonged contact with the skin on your neck.
