6. Can I use the 3M™ Littmann® Classic II Infant Stethoscope on neonates?

Yes. However, some neonatal specialists report that the diameter of the bell and diaphragm on this model is still too large to achieve good surface contact on neonates.

7. What is the initial warranty date?

The warranty start date is the day you purchased your Littmann stethoscope, which can be verified on your original purchase receipt. If you no longer have your receipt, we will use the date of manufacture as the warranty start date.
If a material or manufacturing defect is discovered during the warranty period, we will repair your Littmann stethoscope free of charge (except in cases of abuse or accidental damage), subject to any additional limitations or exclusions set forth in the warranty documentation.

8. How should I routinely clean my mechanical or electronic stethoscope? Can I sterilize it

3M recommends cleaning Littmann stethoscopes with a 70% isopropyl alcohol solution or wipe between patients. Avoid using hand sanitizer, as its additives may damage parts of the stethoscope. Do not immerse your stethoscope in any liquid or subject it to sterilization.

9. Why does the tubing on my stethoscope become stiff and rigid after a period of years?

The tubing on Littmann stethoscopes is made of PVC (polyvinyl chloride), which can become stiff over time when exposed to the lipids found in human skin. We recommend wearing the stethoscope over a collar and away from direct skin contact.
