6. Maintenance

Storage of Concentrate:

Store the F10 SC concentrate in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Ensure it is stored out of the reach of children and pets.

Stability of Diluted Solution:

For optimal efficacy, prepare only the amount of diluted solution needed for immediate use. It is recommended to use freshly prepared solutions. If storing diluted solution, ensure it is in a clean, labeled container and use within one week.

7. Troubleshooting

Ineffective Disinfection:

• Incorrect Dilution: Verify that the F10 SC concentrate was diluted precisely according to the recommended ratios for the intended application. Too little concentrate will reduce efficacy.
• Insufficient Pre-Cleaning: Ensure all surfaces are thoroughly cleaned of organic debris (dirt, feces, food particles) before applying the disinfectant. Organic matter can reduce the effectiveness of disinfectants.
• Inadequate Contact Time: The solution must remain in contact with the surface until it air dries to achieve full disinfection. Do not rinse off prematurely.

Skin or Eye Irritation:

If irritation occurs after contact with diluted solution, rinse the affected area thoroughly with water. If irritation persists, or if contact was made with the concentrate, refer to the First Aid measures in Section 2 and seek medical attention if necessary.
