SPECIFICATIONS.

The CEFLA s.c. shall not be held liable for any personal injury or property damage arising from failure to heed the following clause.

• Floor conditions. The floor (continuous) should meet the load-bearing capacity set forth by DIN 1055, sheet 3. The dental unit weighs approximately 400 kg, including the maximum load of 190 kg permitted on the dental chair. For further details on anchoring conditions, refer to the Installation Manual. The positions of delivery and drain line connections comply with standard ISO 7494-2. In case of floor installation without load distribution plate, floor characteristics must ensure a breaking strength of the anchor bolt not less

than 1200 daN each (considering RcK concrete strength 20 MPa). In case of floor installation with load reduction plate, floor characteristics must ensure a strength of the anchor bolt not less than 260 daN.

• This device may not be modified in any way without the authorisation of the manufacturer. If the device is modified, appropriate examinations and tests need to be conducted in order to ensure continued safe use. The CEFLA s.c. shall not be held liable for any personal injury or property damage arising from failure to heed the following clause.

• Dental chair. The maximum load values indicated in the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS paragraph must never be exceeded.

• Tray holders. The maximum weights that can be held must never be exceeded:

- tray holder attached to the dentist's board, maximum permitted load on the tray holder module 2 kg, evenly distributed.

- tray holder attached to the assistant's board, maximum permitted load 1 Kg, evenly distributed.

- auxiliary tray holder, maximum permitted load on the tray 3.5 Kg (without negatoscope) or 2.5 Kg (with negatoscope).

• Connections to external instruments. The equipment can be electrically connected only to other instruments that bear the CE mark.

• Electromagnetic interferences.

Use of electrical equipment that does not comply with standard IEC 60601-1-2 in the office or nearby may cause electromagnetic or other

types of interferences resulting in dental unit malfunctions. In these cases, it is recommended to shut off power to the dental unit before using this equipment.

• Replacing the drills.

Operate the turbine release and contra angle devices only once the drill has come to a complete stop. Failure to do so will result in damaging

the locking system and drills could be released and cause injury. Exclusively use high-quality drills with a connection rod having a calibrated diameter. To check the conditions of the locking system, make sure the drill is firmly secured to the instrument every day before starting work. Locking system defects caused by misuse can be easily identified and are not covered by the warranty.

The drills and various instruments attached to the handpieces must comply with Biocompatibility Standard ISO 10993.

• Patients with active implantable medical devices.

When treating patients with implanted active devices, such as cardio-stimulators, hearing aids or other active devices, the possible effects

of the instruments used on the implanted device should be considered. Please refer to the technical-scientific literature available on this subject and to the instructions for use of said devices.

• Use with external instruments.

If the dental unit is used for operations using separate standalone equipment such as mobile equipment for implants or endodontics, you

are recommended to power off the dental chair to avoid unwanted movements resulting from accidental start up of the movement controls.

• Do not forget to turn off the office water supply and main switch on the equipment before leaving the surgery.

• The equipment is not protected against liquid penetration IP X0.

• The equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a mixture of flammable anaesthetic gas with oxygen or nitrous oxide.

• This equipment must be stored properly so that it is kept in top working order at all times. The manufacturer shall not be held responsible

(under civil and criminal law) for misuse, carelessness or improper use of the equipment.

• The equipment may only be used by authorised and adequately trained staff (dentists and paramedics).

• The user must be present at all times when the equipment is turned on or ready for start-up. In particular, never leave the equipment

unattended in the presence of minors/incapacitated subjects or other unauthorised personnel in general.

Any accompanying person must stay outside the area in which the treatment is performed and in any case on responsibility of the operator. The operating area refers to the space around the dental unit plus 1.5 meters.

• Quality of the water delivered by the dental unit.

The user is responsible for the quality of the water delivered by the dental unit and must adopt measures to maintain the water quality. To ensure that delivered water is kept to quality standards, CEFLA s.c. recommends equipping the dental unit with an internal or external

disinfection system.

The dental unit, once installed, is exposed to possible contaminants coming from the water mains. So, to effectively overcome this problem,

it is recommended to install and operate the dental unit only at the moment in which the professional will use it daily and perform the disinfecting procedures starting from the day in which it is installed by following the instructions set forth in the relevant sections.

If the dental unit is equipped with the air separation device from water mains (EN 1717), make sure that the expected continuous supply of

disinfectant is also carried out by ensuring that the relevant tank contains a suitable quantity of disinfectant (see relevant paragraph).

Contact your local dealer or Association of Dentists for more detailed information about national laws and requirements.

Applied parts. The parts that, during standard use, necessarily come into contact with the patient in order for the device to carry out its functions correctly,

are: dental chair upholstery, armrest, curing light fiber optic, terminal part of the syringe, single-use camera protection, scaler tips, handpiece drills, suction tube holder terminals.

Non applied parts that may come into contact with the patient are: dental chair armrest support, dental chair lower casing, patient-side water

Page 8

A5 - A6 PLUS - L6

• Dental chair movement.

Make sure that the patient is ready to collaborate: ask him/her to keep his/her hands and feet close, avoiding incorrect postures. Check that the patient is sitting properly when moving the chair (see figure).

1.4. ELECTROMAGNETIC SAFETY

Electromagnetic immunity.

The device is intended for use in environments recognised as professional health facilities, as described in IEC 60601-1-2:2014. The device belongs to CISPR 11 Class A Group 1 and complies with immunity test levels specified by IEC 60601-1-2:2014 for professional health facilities. Before using any electronic device in health facilities, always check that it is compatible with the other equipment present. If it is used in a residential environment (as specified in CISPR 11 class B) this equipment might not offer adequate protection to radio-frequency communication services. The user might need to take mitigation measures, such as relocating or re-orienting the equipment. For further information on immunity levels and characteristics of the electromagnetic environment, see the specific tables in paragraph TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS.

• Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided, because it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.

• Use of accessories, transducers and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.

• Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the device, including cables specified by the manufacturer.

Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result.

• Do not subject the device to strong electromagnetic disturbances.

Electrical medical equipment are subject to special precautionary measures in relation to electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). The

equipment must be installed and used according to the Manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to observe the installation requirements

and the Manufacturer’s instructions could affect the equipment position and the correspondence of its operating parameters.

A5 - A6 PLUS - L6

1.5. CLEANING AND DISINFECTION

Cleaning is the first step required for any disinfection process. Physically scrubbing with detergents and surface-active substances and rinsing with water removes a considerable amount of micro-organisms. If the surface is not first cleaned, the disinfection process cannot be successful. If a surface cannot be adequately cleaned, it should be protected with barriers. The outer parts of the equipment must be cleaned and disinfected using a product for hospital use with indications for HIV, HBV and tuberculocidal (medium-level disinfectant) specific for small surfaces. The various drugs and chemical products used in dental surgeries may damage the painted surfaces and the plastic parts. Researches and tests performed show that the surfaces cannot be fully protected against the harsh action of all products available on the market. We therefore recommend protecting with barriers whenever possible. The harsh actions of chemical products also depend on the amount of time they are left on the surfaces. It is therefore important not to leave the product on the surfaces longer than the time specified by the manufacturer.

It is recommended to use the specific medium-level disinfectant, STER 1 PLUS (CEFLA s.c.), which is compatible with:

• Coated surfaces and plastic parts.

• Upholstery.

The MEMORY FOAM upholstery will stain when splashed with mordant acid. Immediately rinse with plenty of water if acid spatters on the upholstery.

• Uncoated metal surfaces. If you do not use STER 1 PLUS, it is recommended to use products that contain at maximum:

• Ethanol. Concentration: maximum 30 g per 100 g of disinfectant.

• 1-Propanol (n-propanol, propyl alcohol, n-propyl alcohol). Concentration: maximum 20 g per 100 g of disinfectant.

• Combination of ethanol and propanol. Concentration: the combination of the two should be maximum 40 g per 100 g of disinfectant.

• Do not use products containing isopropyl alcohol (2-propanol, iso-propanol).

• Do not use products containing sodium hypochlorite (bleach).

• Do not use cleaners containing phenols.

• Do not spray the selected product directly on the surfaces.

• All products must be used as directed by the manufacturer.

• Do not mix the STER 1 PLUS disinfectant with other products.

The products suggested are compatible with the materials of the equipment, however damages may occur to surfaces and materials resulting from the use of different products, even if not included in the above list of excluded products.

Cleaning and disinfecting instructions.

Clean and disinfect with disposable non-abrasive paper (avoid using recycled paper) or sterile gauze. Do not use sponges or, in any case, any material that can be reused.

• It is recommended to turn off the dental unit prior to cleaning and disinfecting the external parts.

• All material used to clean and disinfect must be thrown away upon completing the procedure.

The cleaning/disinfection/sterilization times of each element of the dental unit are listed in the booklet "PROTOCOL FOR HYGIENIC MAINTENANCE OF THE DENTAL UNIT", also supplied with the unit.

Page 10

A5 - A6 PLUS - L6

1.6. STERILISATION

Every instrument supplied is NOT STERILE and must be sterilised in steam autoclave (max. 135°C) before use, without performing any type of chemical sterilization. Sterilization must be performed using appropriate packaging materials, verified during the sterilization process validation. It is recommended to sterilize in steam autoclave (moist heat) through a cycle with pre-vacuum (forced air removal). Autoclaves must comply with and be approved and maintained in accordance with the requirements set forth by the Standards EN 13060 (or ANSI/AAMI ST55), EN ISO 17665-1 and ANSI/AAMI ST79. Below are the minimum recommended parameters for the sterilization of reusable medical devices, that have been approved in order to ensure a sterility assurance level (SAL) equal to 10^-6:

• Cycle type: with pre-vacuum (Pre-vac).

• Method: "overkill" moist heat sterilization according to Standard ISO 17665-1.

• Minimum temperature: 134° C (273° F) for heat-resistant materials (instruments and metal handpieces, etc.);121°C (250°F) for thermolabile materials

(rubber items, etc.).

• Minimum exposure time (1): 4 minutes (at 134°C), 20 minutes (at 120°C).

• Minimum drying time (2): defined to ensure compliance with the requirements of Standard EN 13060 (or ANSI/AAMI ST55).

(1) Exposure time: time during which the load and the entire chamber are kept at a temperature higher than the sterilization one. (2) Drying time: time during which steam is removed from the chamber and the chamber pressure decreases to allow the condensate to evaporate from

the load through a prolonged emptying or thanks to the supply of hot air or other gases then removed.

The drying time varies according to the load configuration and the packaging type and material.

Operation.

• The instrument is supplied non-sterile.

• Before use, disinfect the lamp handle. The fiber optic and

the eye protection can be sterilized in a steam autoclave up to 135°C.

• Put the fiber optic (c) in its housing until it clicks.

• Attach the curing light handpiece to the end of its power hose and tighten

the ring nut (e).

• Take the lamp out of its housing on the assistant’s board or dentist's board.

Instrument activation is highlighted by the relevant managing screen appearing on the DISPLAY.

• Turn the front of the lamp and/or fiber optic to the position most suitable for curing (wand, gun or intermediate positions).

• Use the MODE button to select the desired cycle as previously directed (the selected cycle is always indicated by the illuminated LED).

The curing light has a permanent memory therefore the last cycle used will always be present the next time it is used.

• Place the fiber optic in the position required for curing.

The fiber optic should be placed as close as possible to the material to be cured without touching it.

• Press button START to start the cycle.

Operating mode: work 2 consecutive cycles, rest 60 seconds.

When a programmed cycle is activated, the LEDs (1, 2, 3, B, R, L) indicate the time that elapses (in multiples of 5 seconds) and turn off every 5 seconds of operation. The curing light comes with a beep that BEEPS when the cycle starts, BEEPS every 5 seconds of operation and lastly BEEPS twice at the end of the work cycle.

• Allow light emission to stop by itself. However, it can be stopped at any time by simply pressing the START button again.

• The curing light is equipped with a system that signals

malfunctions by illuminating the LEDs in different combinations (see next paragraph).

• The curing light is equipped with a thermal cut-out.

Check the condition of the handpiece if it has been banged or dropped before using the curing light. Try to turn on the light and check operation first without using it on the patient. If cracked, broken or if there are any other faults, do not use the curing light on the patient and contact the technical service department. The fiber optic is rather delicate and may crack or break if banged, affecting the final amount of light emitted. If dropped, carefully inspect the fiber optic to verify if it is cracked or broken. If cracked, a strong light appears in the spot in which the fiber is cracked. In all these cases, the fiber optic must be replaced.

• The curing light handpiece (sold separately) can be connected only to dental units with connections for this curing light handpiece. Connection to any other equipment may damage the circuits inside the lamp and seriously injure the user and patient.

• The curing light handpiece is not protected against liquid penetration.

• The curing light handpiece is not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anaesthetic gas mixed with air, oxygen or nitrous oxide (N2O).

Cleaning.

The curing light may be a means of cross contamination between patients. The most contaminated parts are the fiber optic and the eye protection. Before sterilizing them, make sure there are no residues of curing products: if necessary, clean with alcohol or a plastic spatula. Exclusively sterilise the fiber optic and the eye protection in an autoclave at a sterilization temperature of at least 134°C.

• The fiber optic can undergo 500 autoclave cycles after which it tends to become opaque and therefore emit less light.

• The eye protection must also be replaced after 500 cycles.

• Contact the manufacturer to purchase original spare parts (fiber optic + eye protection: code 97660404).

Page 50

A5 - A6 PLUS - L6

The handpiece cannot be put in autoclave; disinfect it on the outside with suitable products and cover it with disposable plastic wrap. Use soft disposable paper towels to disinfect the handpiece. Do not use harsh products or soak in liquids.

• The curing light handpiece is NOT suitable for autoclave.

• The curing light handpiece is not protected against penetration of liquids therefore it CANNOT be soaked in a solution to be sterilized.

• The outside of the lamp should be disinfected with the fiber optic on.

Do not use any type of disinfectant on the exposed optical surface of the handpiece when the fiber is removed. The surface will become irreparably opaque if it comes into contact with disinfectant.

Maintenance.

This equipment does not require any particular type of maintenance. Only technicians authorised by the manufacturer can replace and/or repair the handpiece and dental unit. The handpiece has been purposely constructed in a manner that requires specific tools to open it and therefore it cannot be removed by the user. The warranty is automatically void if the handpiece is altered in any way.

Troubleshooting.

• When the lamp is removed, the light does not come on (no LED on control panel illuminated). Make sure the Midwest connection is correctly attached to the power hose. Carefully screw the ring nut, try to put the lamp back in and then take it out again. If the problem persists, contact technical service department.

• Less light emitted.

- Make sure the fiber optic is not cracked or damaged in any way: replace it if it is so. Contact the manufacturer to purchase original spare parts.

- Make sure there are no residues of curing products on the end of the fiber optic: if necessary, wipe off with alcohol or a plastic spatula.

If the handpiece must be sent back, please disinfect it. Ship it back in its original packing. In addition, please enclose a description of the fault with the shipping note.

5.8. C-U2 DENTAL CAMERA

The C-U2 dental camera system, complete with an extremely lightweight ergonomic handpiece, is specially designed for simple and well-conceived usability in examining the oral cavity. Auto-exposure and fixed focus features provide easy operation. It is designed to allow the dentist to more efficiently show and explain to patients all oral conditions and reasons for planned treatment. The C-U2 system allows taking high-definition (1280x720) live images of the section in question through the touch of a fingertip on the touch-sensitive area of the handpiece. The live intraoral images are displayed on the monitor or Personal Computer.

The camera may be used as a tool to aid in diagnosis; however, the result must always be supported with visual examination and/or other diagnostic indications. Evaluations and conclusions based only on the image taken by the camera may be poor as the colours and shapes, electronically processed, may not perfectly correspond to the actual ones.

Warnings for use.

• The external PC and the external monitor must be of medical grade, namely they have to be certified and comply with the standard

IEC 60601-1 3rd Ed. They have to be able to ensure a double insulation level for both patient (2 MOPP) and operator (2 MOOP):

- with respect to the power mains;

- to all the I/O ports (USB, LAN) supplied with Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV).

• It is advisable not to use it in proximity of life support equipment (e.g. pacemakers or heart stimulators) according to the

specifications included in the user manual of such equipment.

• Disposable infection control sheaths must be used with the device and changed for each new patient.

• After putting on a new disposable infection control sheath, check it over before using the camera, making sure it is not torn anywhere.

If it is, take it off and put on a new one.

• Do not place the handpiece in liquids or in autoclave.

• Store the handpiece in a clean dry area.

• Do not bend the connecting cable excessively.

• Be extremely careful not to drop the handpiece and do not expose it to excessive vibrations.

• Never use a damaged handpiece. Make sure the camera is in good condition and has no sharp edges before attempting to use it. If

in doubt, do not use the handpiece, carefully put it away, and contact technical assistance.

• Before starting the equipment, check the condition of the lens protection.

• Do not aim the light beam at the operator’s or patient’s eyes during operation.

• During continuous use (example, more than 10 consecutive minutes), the temperature of the camera’s tip usually increases

significantly; if this is uncomfortable, put the handpiece in its holder for a few minutes to allow the light source to cool down. When the camera needs to be used for a prolonged time, reduce light brightness using the cursor on the OSD Control Panel (see paragraph

5.8.1.).

• If left running for extended periods, make sure the temperature of the tip is acceptable before attempting to use the camera. Briefly

touch the clear plastic part with your fingertip being careful not to touch the lens in the middle.

• Do not attempt to bend, pull or remove the handpiece.

Connecting the handpiece.

5.9. ELECTRONIC APEX LOCATOR

This locator, through the analysis of the variations of special electric signals, makes root apex location easier. If used together with a "file" (not supplied) for manual treatment, it proves useful also to measure canal length. In addition to being used for manual detection with external wiring, the locator can also perform live detection during root canal treatment. With micromotor in ENDODONTIC mode and with suitable contra angles, the locator uses the same file inserted in the canal as the active detection probe.

Component description.

1 APEX LOCATOR external wiring.

1.1 APEX LOCATOR external wiring - neutral pole.

1.2 APEX LOCATOR external wiring - active pole.

2 Hook-type electrode. 3 Probe. 4 APEX LOCATOR clip connecting tweezers. 5 APEX LOCATOR external wiring port.

Operation.

• On this dental unit, the locator is automatically activated upon external wiring (1) insertion inside the special socket (5) positioned under dentist's board. Once enabled, the menu for trigger threshold setting appears on the DISPLAY (see paragraph 5.1.1.17.).

• Electrode application:

- Connect hook-type electrode (2) to neutral pole (1.1) and position it

on patient's lip.

- Connect active pole (1.2) to file (not supplied) inserted inside the root

canal; connection to the file can be carried out through probe (3) or through the special tweezers (4) or directly from the file inserted in the canal through special handpieces.

Electrodes are supplied NON-sterile.

Indications on LCD Touch DISPLAY.

• The bargraph on DISPLAY right-hand side indicates file position compared to apex. The numerical indications “1, 2" refer to the relative

distance between instrument and apex.

The indication "> 3" signals that the file is too far from apex to be detected.

• The APEX icon displays the set trigger threshold. The trigger threshold refers to the distance between instrument and apex above which an audible signal - progressively increasing as instrument gets closer to apex - is generated. Set the time using the touch buttons "+" and "-".

Both graphic and numerical indications are constantly updated while file is inserted inside canal.

APEX LOCATOR combined with electric micromotor.

This locator can also be used in combination with the electric micromotor when set to ENDO mode. When the locator is enabled, if electric micromotor is extracted in ENDO mode both the information relating to the micromotor and those relating to locator (bargraph and APEX values) are shown at the same time on the DISPLAY. During electric micromotor operation, the keys are associated to instrument functions, and locator trigger threshold cannot be edited but by putting instrument back in place.

X APEX STOP enabled

Page 56

A5 - A6 PLUS - L6

Root canal length detection.

• The use of manual file is of the utmost importance for canal detection. The correct procedure entails file insertion inside canal until reaching indication

0.5.

• Insert the file with a slow clockwise rotation until the APEX indication appears on the instrument.

• Once APEX indication appears, move the file backward by turning it counter-clockwise until reaching again the value of 0.5. Position a rubber stopper

close to the occlusal surface as a reference point to define the work length inside root canal.

• Make an X-ray to check file correct positioning.

• Remove file from canal and measure the work length with a ruler. Deduct a safety value of 0.5-1 mm from the reading.

Always use the locator in combination with X-ray test to accurately define apex position. Different, and not always predictable, morphological conditions could lead to inaccurate readings. For example:

- Excessively wide root canal.

- Re-treatments.

- Broken roots.

- Presence of metal crowns.

5.10. ZEN-Xi INTEGRATED SENSOR

The integrated ZEN-Xi sensor is a medical device used for the acquisition of intraoral X-rays in electronic format through the interface with a Personal Computer.

7.3. W.H.E. SYSTEM (WATER HYGIENIZATION EQUIPMENT)

The W.H.E. system ensures a safe, physical, separation of the dental unit water system from the water mains thanks to a water free fall section (in compliance with EN 1717). In addition, system continuously delivers hydrogen peroxide inside water circuit with a final concentration inside ducts of 0.06% (600 ppm), which is suitable to carry out bacteriostasis. To this end, the use of PEROXY Ag+ (CEFLA s.c.) is recommended; or 3% Hydrogen Peroxide (oxygenated water, 10 volumes).

Description of the system.

The W.H.E. system is positioned inside the connection box and is always active. A tank (a) located inside the water unit contains approx. 500 cc. of disinfectant fluid to supply the system.

• The W.H.E. system is automatically disabled when the S.H.S. system is enabled.

Disinfectant fluid running out warning.

When the oxygenated water present in the tank (a) is running out, the dental unit emits an intermittent sound (3 BEEPS) that is repeated at every start-up of the equipment.

• For console with LCD Touch DISPLAY:

A specific icon (G) on the dentist's console display signals that the tank (a) contains a sufficient amount of disinfectant fluid.

If disinfectant fluid has run out, the dental unit will nevertheless continue working, but it will use UNTREATED mains water. We recommend topping up disinfectant fluid as soon as possible.

The exhaustion of the disinfectant inside the tank also causes a clear slowdown in the operations of use of the W.H.E. system, which should not be considered a fault. The normal operation of the system is obtained by restoring the correct level of disinfectant inside the relevant tank.

Page 67

A5 - A6 PLUS - L6
